Bull Shitte.
The war turned around as soon as Rumsfeld was kicked to the curb. Gates seems to be doing a good job. I’m very glad that despite Obama’s massive liabilities on economics, he is getting decent marks from his defense team, so far.
Time will be that judge...as time will be the judge as to the effectiveness of the strategy.
This much we know.
Bush's policies have freed tens of millions of people who have never been free before in a part of the world that knows precious little or no freedom.
This will be invaluable if we will support that freedom in opening the door to more of the same in that area, the heart of the fundamental Islamic Jihadist who must depend on tyranny, intolerance, and ignorance to fill their ranks...all of which liberty is the natural enemy to.
Obama's policies and direction, had they been followed as he has espoused them instead of Bush's, would have opened no such door and freed no one.
We also know this...Bush's policies led to us not gettgin hit again by a major terror attack on these shores. He took the fight to the enemy and the emeny is cowering in holes.
We shall see in four years (God forbid eight) if OBama can say the samen either count.
“It’s hard to say.” What the f??? Well how about saying that Bush was actually working towards an American victory! That would be one big damn difference right there, chunky.
....and a LOT less truthful.
So Barry has to ask question after question until he understands an issue, DURING a meeting, while Bush prepared for meetings in advance.
Yeah Barry, go ahead and ask the Surgeon General about Iraq because he has a uniform... Or ask that bozo Panetta....
