    He followed his dad more than he followed the republican party.

    Then comes the question:
    Did he lead by himself alone or with a team of people from his republican party?

    GWB represented politics. The bigger question is, what ideals or philosophies do republicans adhere to?

    You would probably know more than me as he lives closer but from all the documentaries I've seen, it was the neo-cons that pushed him into doing what he did, from something they started in the 60s. - Guessing that's the republicans then.

    It was 9/11 that finally gave them the permissions they needed to stuff up the world!

    Well he had a team of people everyone knows that, but the whole Iraq war is like telling me "let's finish what was started 10 years ago".

    He probably wanted to finish what his daddy started before the Clinton Years thus Iraq was "brought into the picture".
