That would not ring so hollow if Obama would stop the wars How's he supposed to do that? Snap his fingers? It takes a while. We're certainly drawing down in Iraq. A decision is pending in Afg. Considering what just happened in Afghanistan in regard to the election re-run, I'm hoping Obama resists the pressure to send in 40,000 more troops, or any number resembling 40,000. Afghanistan is not a nation, it is a collection of territories run by warlords, with a central government run by a crook. Pakistan is also a failed nation. The geography in that part of the world is pretty impossible. True It's too bad Dubya blew our wad in Iraq. Had our military concentrated on Afghanistan and the Taliban and al Qaeda these past eight years, we might be in a much better position now. Not so true. We would just have more body bags. We had an early opportunity in Afg. We had world-wide support, and Bush squandered it. It would have made a difference. The SU had no such support, and we were actively working against them. Wasn't anyone paying attention to what happened to the Soviets? They spared no expense and gave no quarter, using the most ruthless tactics, and still got their ass kicked. All "Joe Wilson's war" did was make it a little more costly for them and challenged their air superiority but they still never really held much ground, even before we gave Bin Laden the stingers. At the time, it was their Vietnam. Now it is ours. Air power will not will a guerilla war. Wilson's war made it much more costly for them. It's nothing like VN. Iraq is more like that, but even that is a flawed analogy. -- Nom=de=Plume |

You can demonize Bush all you want, I won't stop you but you have to know the enabling legislation was passed while we were all wondering about blue dresses, cigars and little white lies. Now that you brought it up, some of the other legislation that set the stage for this looting happened while we were worried about what Oliver North was up to. There is nothing like a good scandal to divert our attention from what is really important and to stop any real business going on that benefits the country. If Obama gets bogged down in some Cheney investigation, that will be the only thing he will be doing. Certainly true... I don't think Obama will get bogged down if the AG decides to proceed.
