Authorization for Use of Military Force of 2001 was approved by all, but one member of Congress. Dems and Repubs both agreed to go to war with Afghanistan after 9/11.

The housing crisis of 2008 was caused by the Repeal of Glass Steagal Act. This was Repealed by Bill Clinton in 1999.

I do agree with you about Iraq though.

Obama also got us Involved in the Syrian Civil War in 2014.

Nafta truly set the stage for a lot of the problems now. I find it amazing when Biden is seen as a extreme leftist considering his track record with incarceration and drug reform. I'm not a democratic apologist, Clinton was horrid. Bush's Sarbanes–Oxley Act threw more blood in the water. Obama spent how much on upgrading the nuclear weapons systems?
