Perhaps he just understands Islam better than you do.

Well thats fine... if you are Pat Buchanon isolationist paleoconservative then fine. Just say so.

Don't come out acting like a democrat saying that somehow you were 'tricked' or 'lied' to, somehow fooled into this "obvious quagmire", which was a big mistake.

If you supported it then, and are suddenly isolationist because it got hard, then you are no better than the libs in my book. (well ok you are, but not on this issue)

I've studied Islam since 9/11. You have not.

"Don't come out acting like a democrat saying that somehow you were 'tricked' or 'lied' to, somehow fooled into this "obvious quagmire", which was a big mistake."

Not prosecuting this like a real WAR was the mistake. Conservatives take issue with the Iraq operation for different reasons than liberals.

You are no better than the libs in my book. You are unwilling to even entertain the possibility that this PC approach to war is not likely to lead to an actual victory.
