But that's not what Bush did. His only "right wing" measure was the tax cut--which was enacted long before 9/11. His *political* agenda was in general continuity with Clinton's (as Obama's is with Bush's). Bush's real agenda was a looting operation, primarily by means of the financial "regulators" and the military "contractors." Top understand the Iraq war all you need to do is "Follow The Money."
