You’re saying that there was no Afghan war for the first 10 months of Bush’s admin and no Iraq war for the first two I take it?
Even with that factored in, from what I can tell the Bush admin dropped nearly double (100k for Obama vs 200k for Bush), although I’m not sure where they’re sourcing their information from.
It’s a weird argument, because he got the peace prize really early into his presidency; before he could have an impact to get America to drop 100k bombs vs 200k, but also dropping a hundred thousand bombs seems like a hundred thousand more bombs than one would have to drop to be called a paragon of peace…
Oh for sure, I just don’t think it makes sense to imply he was worse than the people that created the mess in the first place who also happened to drop more bombs.
I think I’m wrong upon further review because Obama pulled back from ground commitments and compensated with bombing campaigns. From what I can tell the Isis bombing campaigns really brought his count up as well.
Or, you know, that 8 years is longer than 6 years.

Where are you getting your numbers from, cause what I’m seeing is that America dropped way more bombs under Obama than under Bush.
