The only thing worse than Democrats not criticizing Obama for continuing Bush era policies is Republicans not praising him for it.
Shooting cockroaches with a pellet gun would no doubt kill cockroaches.
As an approach to ridding your house of the pests, it just might to more damage than it is worth.
Killing terrorist suspects, along with some inevitable collateral damage, is like shooting cockroaches in your house with a pellet gun.
It could be worse. The homeowner could use a .22.
Now, if drone attacks on terrorists is such a good idea, why not use the same tactic to kill gang leaders right here in the USA?[/QUOTE]
Food for thought.
In what sort of idiotic, mixed up world does the effect ever preceed the cause?
People that unclear on the concept should not be conducting phony polls, even if their complete partisan hackery seems to compel them to do so.
I may disagree with President Obama on quite a few of his domestic agendas, but when it comes to fighting terrorist and terrorism, I think the president has done a very good job. In fact I have seen little in his foreign policy that I really had heartburn over.
All very interesting but this thread is asking those that blamed Bush for terrorism if they now blame obama.
So you never blamed Bush for terrorism? You were not in the GITMO is creating terrorist, Iraq war is doing the same camp?

Because the Iraq war was a creation of a entire theater of war for terrorist to train in real combat.
That at the same the brutality of the war lead to radicalization of an entire country.
That at the same time the extremly bad planning of the Iraq war lead to that the country became one big weapon supermarket for terrorist.
That of course does't mean that their would be no terrorism without those act or that you should stop all action that potientally can lead to increase threath of terror, but some times things can maybe be done diffrently. Like for example focus the resources on creating stability and peace in Afganisthan instead of going to war with Iraq. Maybe have a better plan of capture and convicte terrorist then Guatanamo bay. And maybe more can be done to avoid civilian casualities then using drones.
