Cruz is my man.

That said, I don’t know that I agree with him on this one. Having knocked over the government, we ought not leave a vacuum to be filled with people as bad or worse than the ones we ousted. My view was that the steady draw-down leaving a residual force was the right answer.

Too quick a draw-down in Afghanistan meant giving the country back to the Talibs. Too quick a draw-down in Iraq meant giving the country to the Baathists, or Al Qaeda, or the Iranians, or as ultimately occurred, ISIS.

Of course, when you have Muslim Brotherhood in the White House, nothing you do is likely to have a happy outcome.

Of course, when you have Muslim Brotherhood in the White House, nothing you do is likely to have a happy outcome.

And our unwillingness to acknowledge the muslim brotherhood infection in the GOP means the problem will continue to exist no matter who is in the white house.
