1. Ten pointless years of troop and civilian deaths in Afghanistan/Iraq hurts MY feelings.

3. Watching the live news right now, Bush fucked himself badly.

He always makes the wrong choice.

15. Yeah. Why didn't he keep his mouth shut. Is he nuts. Why would

he let people know that he's sulking? People were starting to say he had some dignity after all when her declined the invitation to attend.

This is stupid. "Always makes the wrong choice".

4. Guess it was too much to expect that he refused for the RIGHT reason

but watching the President in NYC, I'm glad he didn't bother either way.

5. This is silly.

It was gracious of Obama to invite him. It was gracious of Bush to decline.

I guess it was too much to hope that we could have an adult moment in politics.

11. I'M confused! "credit" for deposing one of OBL's MAIN foes in the region????

Saddam Hussein was NOT a good guy, but he also was NOT a religious extremist. OBL tried to overthrow him, but Bush did OBL's work for him and we're supposed to see that as somehow anti-"Islamic"-Terror?????? Let's ask Musharaff.

6. Obama finished what Bush quit on

The London, Madrid and Bali Bombings may never have had the chance to occur - had Bin Laden been taken under Bush' watch.

His feelings are hurt?

10. Obama's been giving Buxh credit all along

He seldom gives a speech where he doesn't mention what a mess he inherited, but Republicans don't want credit. Maybe he's tired of hearing Republicans remind him that Bush is no longer in office, and it's "Obama's economy", Obama's debt, and "Obama's war".

When it's convenient, Republicans tell us that Buxh did nothing, but when someone's handing out ice cream, they want him to be at the head of the line.

12. I would prefer seeing that sad face at the ICC.

The sad defendant ruing his war crimes.
