Philly, if Biden has set the overarching domestic policy for Obama for the last six years, like Cheney did for foreign policy for Bush, then yeah, Obama is Biden ' s puppet re domestic affairs.

So its just a coincidence that a blank slate president with no foreign policy experience ended up acting out Cheney ' s wet dream for 6 years or.....?

We view rhe time line differently. I think Bush selected one of daddy's buddies and was then persuaded by Cheney ' s experience and steady hand during 911 to adopt cheneys foreign policy.

I find it unlikely Bush could have found Iraq on a map in 2000. Seriously. The man never displayed any hint of intellectual curiosity. The idea thst he was a neocon, which is a relatively complex foreign policy perspective, prior to Cheney is laughable to me.

In the end Bush deserves most of the blame for the Iraq war.. He was in charge, so ultimately the decision was his...

But I THINK as time has gone on Bush realized the war was a mistake, and it didn't turn out the way they all expected.. There were no Iraqis throwing flowers are the feet of the conquering American soldiers..

So Bush has taken the high road. I think he feels some remorse.. Cheney on the other hand has been, and continues to be a complete asshole.. And if I was still a Republican, or especially a Republican politician I'd be begging the dumb bastard to STFU... Him and his lies cost this country immense damage, and he continues go on Fox weekly to make a case for more Americans to die... He has no shame, he has no remorse, hell he has no reflexion..
