Well, I guess we will just have live with the success we actually have. I will be fascinated with how quickly Obama turns Bush’s success around in Iraq. He is a great morale booster to the enemy, as the recent spike in suicide bombing attests to. He is another Clinton weak sister.

Also, in war being a winner usually means there has to be a loser, even on your own side. So praise General Petreaus, if that means General Casey and Rumsfield didn’t do so well, so be it. General Petreaus and his team got it right in Iraq, and we should listen to him about the rest of the Global War on Islamic Terror, as well.
