Haha…. No it sounded SOOO stupid. At least in the respect that we would let it drive our foreign policy. But alas we were baited into an un-winnable war because the child president and his band of merry henchmen didn’t want to get called pussies. Boy did we show them.
There will be cheering in the streets of Islamabad when we leave because we can’t fund the war anymore. The right will howl in righteous indignation and the 2012 campaign slogan for the GOP will be “blame the black guy”.

And yet the quote was true, wasn’t it? It sounded stupid to you, but it turned out to be true. Another right-wing myth disproven, eh?
But here’s the thing – bin laden had to kill almost 3000 of us on our own soil before we had to take the problem seriously. Does that sound like we got “baited” into a war?
Here’s the thing – Obama wanted the job. If he can’t do the job then he will be replaced. Simple as that. It has nothing to do whether he started it. He wanted the job he said he could do it and he better do it. Otherwise yes the blame falls on him. That’s how it works.
