Nation-building? Doubling down on the US commitment to Iraq? Isnt that trying to out-Bush the Bush administration, while Obama campaigned on getting out of Iraq and spending the money on programs at home? Unblinking, one of the soldiers said, Thats what we think Barack will do. They believed in a more expensive version of the administrations program, and faulted Bush for half measures - and somehow they believed that Obama really agreed with them, all the public evidence to the contrary. And they believed in Barack with perfect faith.Holy carp! They seriously think this??? Iran will own Iraq before Obama's second State of the Union address. What the heck have those soldiers been told? Did they listen to the laundry list of domestic spending? OMG.
