Truely shocking... I mean... I should have seen that coming, but...

Good thing Bush isn't going to do anything about it, because we are chasing all the bad guys in Iraq!

Iraq is a good strategy and it is a 'shit magnet'. That's what we wanted. We are also well situated between our friends Syria and Iran. On top of all that, Iraq did poise a regional threat, was a constant thorn in our side, and Saddam's removal was a great thing for the people of Iraq.

Iraq was a good strategic move and there is no military reason for why we are soft on Iran today. The USAF and USN are hardly under stress because of the Iraq campaign. We politically do not want to truly take any military action. It's politics that's driving the reluctance to act, not military potential. All the talk about we are stretched to thin, bla bla bla is BS. Bush does not want to act and the Dems are using this as just another angle to attack the administration.
