[QUOTE="diesel96, post: 517710, member: 9859"] Like all the other Anti-War articles, there's a tone of shock that I'm trying hard not to snicker at. Even as a Senate candidate Obama declared he wasn't "against all wars, just dumb wars." And during the campaign he emphasized his commitment to win in Afghanistan and withdraw combative troops responsibly from Iraq. Apparently you can't just remove a couple of hundred thousand troops in a day, who knew? Maybe the lack of opposition to Obama's war policy is due to the fact that the policy is utterly reasonable: End the war we shouldn't have fought in a manner that doesn't shock the system over there or expose our troops to unnecessary danger, and fight and destroy the organization that has morphed that attacked us on 9/11, and vigorously defend our interests abroad when threatened by violent thugs like the Somali pirates. For my part, I support the Obama Adm because I am confident in his judgment as commander-in-chief and so far hasn't deviated from his promises. I've yet to see the president do anything in terms of foreign policy that even approaches "imperialism." The extreme left, like its counterpart on the right, needs to take a pill and come to terms with the reality that no one is going to enact their respective agendas point-for-point [/QUOTE]
