>>" but I'm sure you support him on that one. "<<

Not at all...think this whole COIN stuff is ludicrous...we can't even fix NO or Detroit. The idea that we will spread democracy, women's rights and what else in an 8th century tribal world with the US military is so idiotic and such a waste. Biden's ideas of less cost, less manpower, don't ignore Afghanistan and Pakistan but try to control it without this War on Terrorism nonsense is much better to my way of thinking given where we are today.

And I thought the invasion of Iraq was crazy from the moment we entered and I was right...worst foreign policy decision by an American President ever. And no doubt you were flag waving the day we invaded even though the Inspectors were back in and said he had no WMD, we were overflying 2/3rds of the country, Kurdistan was safe and Saddam's paper mache, make believe drone fleet couldn't make it to Basra.
