CJ, let me restate. Every president in times of war will be challenged, that much is true. Pressure comes from all over the place, from the challenges of war itself, to the demands of the American public for results, to the political games played by those who think they can do a better job.

Some of the pressure is understandable. War happens, and we rely on our leaders to deal with it. So does partisanship. Politics is a dirty game. But to justify said political partisanship makes just as much sense as justifying war itself. I hate war just as much as you do, but I also hate the political games that are played when the country really doesn't need it.

So I don't understand why you are justifying the partisan politics as "criticism." I think real criticism is valuable, but not deliberate attempts to undermine the authority of a president, divide a country, or hurt morale.

Now, can you tell me that Hillary pulled the "Bush Knew" stunt because she was doing it as an act of public service?
