that wasn't the question I asked though.

Obama learned a lot from Bush. His "Cash for Clunkers" deal was a lot smoother, cheaper and came with a much lower loss for life than Bush's did but... in the end, Al Qaeda 'did' end up with some state of the art shit along with live fire training exercises in Syria, half a billion of cash, Iraqi oil fields and port so... in the end maybe greater overall value than a new Hyundai in every garage?

It's a good answer though.

One implication will be a HUGE black eye for GWB (and Oregon).

I'm not arguing the point, but pointing out that I wondered what the implications will be. Could we be looking at a nuclear Al Qeda* in the near future? What will the ramifications of that be for Saudi Arabia and the shadow Islamist groups there that wish to overthrow their royal family?

And under Obama, our top of the line drone was landed in mint condition in Iran two years ago, and last month the Iranians claimed to have reversed engineered it and have the technology. So it's almost like we're intentionally leveling the playing field with out enemies.

... just to make it fair.

Maliki needs more time to get his recruits in the army. A lot of you guys are acting like Saddam Hussein didn't happen. (Actually, Saddam Hussein looks good compared to Al Queda)

You should play more golf. Obama's doing great.

We need to drop our idiotic practice of not assassinating foreign leaders. It's the most hypocritical shit in the world. If your government is a threat to us and you are its leader, we will kill you, and we'll keep killing your replacements until your people put someone forward who isn't a threat to the world. Assassinate enemy foreign leaders now.

PostGameOrangeSlices

they won't. Iran isn't going to allow Sunni militias to get a foothold on its border

This is chess, not checkers.

And WillinghamFS and Sloppy SteveFS need more time to get their own recruits in!
