Well, yeah, I mean, ya know, dude, we have to keep fighting the eveel Amerikuns, you know.We don't have time to fight cuddly Mr Putin, and Chavez, Kim Il jung, or Akmehadexahdez at the same time....those guys don't merit our attention...

Oh, I have plenty of outrage about it. I'm outraged that we aren't taking advantage of the situation through economic dominance via free-market policy.
And surely, you wouldn't believe that liberal Bush-bashers are going to focus on this kind of stuff. After all, the media hasn't told them to vent their outrage about it yet. Don't you remember? Genocide against Kurds in Iraq is okay, but toppling the Baathist perpetrators isn't. And btw, they don't care if the U.S. leaves the country and paves the way for Shiite Muslims to massacre Sunni Muslims. They care about American soldiers, but not enough to stop encouraging extremist agressors whose entire strategy is to undermine the American people's will.
I hope you're prepared to watch as almost every single act of "incompetence" under Bush is repeated or exacerbated under Obama with little to no criticism.
Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it. I'm sure you're aware that we're travelling that familliar path.
