Hmmm the "mess"...

Hundreds of thousands have died and people are still dying because of the Iraq catastrophe. It will take decades and more lives will be lost before it runs its course.
The financial crisis was an avoidable blunder caused by democrats, to be sure, and millons of people needlessly suffered but it's minor league when compared to the Iraq catastrophe.
