So then, by your own admission, much of your problem is with how the Bush administration handled things after the invasion correct?
Absolutely. It should've been in and out. There was no justification to occupy either country. I've never been a supporter of the occupation. I was a supporter of the original missions. Get Hussein out of Iraq, and punish the Taliban.
