Are there still suckers here who believes that Barack Obama is antiwar and/or wants to withdraw from Afghanistan and Iraq? The trouble is tha the new GOP leadership is likely to roll over and play dead on this issue.
He is totally anti war. His problem is that it is politically impossible for him to just pull out. That is why he has set a timetable (unrealistic) and given his field commanders poor support and unreachable objectives. He will be covered politically when the whole venture fails. I direct your reference to "The Roots of Obama's Rage" now at your local bookseller or library.
