re: Obama stuck

Bush didn't lose Krygyzstan to Putin. The Obama administration did. Look it up.

Remember, the meme was that if Democrats were running things, they could have ended the war in Iraq anytime they wanted. They were all set to shut it down in 2007. The idea that a Democratic president would have to stay there anyway was considered ridiculous.

Remember, the meme was that if Democrats were running things, they would go in and settle Afghanistan--the "good war"--by "doing it right."

Remember, the meme was that only a real bastard would be shooting missiles at villages in Pakistan.

It ain't as easy when you're actually sitting in the big chair, is it?

Want to go look up all the "doesn't matter what happened under Clinton, Bush is president now" posts you generated? Shouldn't be hard to find some.

Tell me how much influence al Qaeda and the Taliban would have in Pakistan and Afghanistan right now if we had done what you say we should have done over there--i.e. nothing.
