I wasn't aware that Afghanistan was now a "failure".

As for the rest,

9/11, Corporate Scandals, and Bin Laden were a Clinton/Bush team effort.

And New Orleans...
I wasn't aware New Orleans suddenly sank below sea level the day Bush
took office. Of course some people are actually expecting us to believe
that if Kerry was president the hurricane wouldn't have been as strong.

New Orleans was the result of a nice chain of events:

1) A city falls further and further below sea level. And instead of condeming
the 9th Ward and using millions/billions to compensate and relocate -- they just tried to maintain a flawed city.
2) Hurricane comes at it.
3) Mayor tells people to go to shelters but doesn't bother to ensure that
the shelters have supplies. You will NEVER see him admit that his
city didn't do enough to prepare itself.
4) Governor (who HAS the authority) appears to have not called in the
National Guard to New Orleans.
5) Some people on the ground start to get violent IMMEDIATELY, not after
days of feeling abandoned and hungry... immediately.
6) Feds, seeing events 2 through 5 choose to continue to let the primary
burden be on state and local, which is S.O.P. for hurricanes.
7) State and locals were unable (for whatever reason) to handle it.
8) FEMA and Feds now look like idiots for waiting for state and local to
be overwhelmed before acting.

Oh... I forgot Iraq. Yes, that's 100% Bush's fuck-up.
