Invading Iraq was very bad but it's not rubble. It's, like, still there.
Deaths in the war were less than you'd think. GWB actually comes out net positive in his presidency because he started PEPFAR (AIDS prevention in Africa) which was really, really good and saved millions of lives.
- mongol 3y agoWith that type of accounting, a father of two can get away with murder since he has been a net positive to the world.

- astrange 3y agoThe randomness is exactly why it's so good. You'd get bad wars from other presidents, but you wouldn't have gotten PEPFAR. Gives him a good value over replacement president.
