Well, but when you're the boss, you're responsible. You're even responsible for what former bosses did. That's the way it works in the business world. Politicians seem to think that politics is different that way, but it's not--just look at the polls.
Like I've said: I don't blame Bush for the 9/11. I do think 90% of what he's done since then has been a mistake. I definitely think the disaster that Iraq has turned into is the result of his "yee-haw diplomacy". A little foresight there could have saved almost 50,000 lives. And (to get back to what this thread is about) it's been all in the name of national security. AND it's made us less secure.
So: if you're talking about blaming Bush for 9/11, then you're the only one talking about that. I don't blame him for that, and so far nobody else in this thread does.
If you're talking about blaming him for everything since then... Well, nothing since then has really had anything to do with Al Qaeda or anything else that existed pre-Bush, so I don't know who else you'd blame.
