Under Obama foreign policy, this guy would be still doing this to other people.

Here’s a BIG Difference Between Bush and Obama Policy 2010 March 3 by David Forsmark

Under Obama foreign policy, this guy would be still doing this to other people.

Ryan Mauro replied to my post that it does matter whether Republicans and Democrats are in charge of foreign policy with this fair point:

David Forsmark replied to my post about the George W. Obama Administration here, titled “Yes, Ryan, There IS a Difference Between the 2 Parties on National Security.” Just a little clarification: I was comparing the Obama and Bush Administrations, not necessarily both parties, and I didn’t say there was no difference at all, just nothing really decisive in my opinion.

Well, I’d say Saddam could point out one decisive difference for you, Ryan.

And, as you yourself point out, the “surge” would not have happened under Obama and Iraq would be well on its way to slipping back into tyranny.

Moreover, giving Obama credit that CIA interrogators are not being prosecuted, that KSM is not being tried in New York, or that the Patriot Act was renewed thanks to public pressure (and great work by Congressmen Pete Hoekstra and Peter King holding their feet to the public fire) is like giving the Clintons credit that Hillarycare did not become reality.

Yes, Obama has sometimes bowed to reality, particularly in foreign policy. But every instinct of this Administration has initially taken it in the opposite direction until it had to be dragged kicking and screaming to a politically defensible position.

The fact that this has not led to a major disaster yet, is just good fortune. I would rather not have to bet on it continuing. (1 image)

Are you going to answer the question?

And most everyone in the region agrees invading Iraq was a mistake. It has next to no popular support...barely does in the US...it was the worst foreign policy blunder ever made by a POTUS.

It was answered.

Bush gave them the opportunity to try Saddam.

That never would have happened under Mr. "57 States."

And most everyone in the region agrees invading Iraq was a mistake. It has next to no popular support...barely does in the US...it was the worst foreign policy blunder ever made by a POTUS.

Bullshit anti-war rhetoric. The success in Iraq will reshape the region. Even Mandingo and Gaffe Biden can't resist jumping on the bandwagon.

You are under the mistaken impression that I agree with the foreign polocy of the current administration that there word would carry some sway with me.

I have been diametrically opposed to our policy in Iraq since Carter supported Saudi Arabi's efforts to get Iraq to attack Iran.

A false assumption about intentions in Iraq.

We've buit permanent structures there to house US troops perpetually. We also hold their hands and tell them "There there..screw the elections...we'll make sure everything stays okay..." everytime they are supposed to have one...

IF killing Saddam was the goal as well as transferring US tax dollars to various Boy Blunder/Big Dick's cronies then the invasion was a success. By any real measure of success it's an abject failure...

The correct assumption is we didn't have any business invading Iraq (or any other country, either - with damn few exceptions. One being unless our interests are DIRECTLY affected.)

Germany and Japan was a DECLARED war. There was a surrender involved.

Korea was a "police" action. Last I checked, there's still a North Korea. And we still have troops on the Korean peninsula - almost 60 years later.

That doesn't have the trappings of an empire?

Perhaps. But the fact remains we won the war, and it appears the aftermath of the war as well.

None of what you post shows 'empire building' nor does it distract from the point being made.

In fact, you should look up the term 'empire' based on what your saying here.

It's all part of the staging. We now have some control over two widely separated but strategically placed countries. The big country in the middle is the only logical choice to be the next area of interest. The area is also on some ancient maps as part of a large homeland for some "chosen" people.

I've made no statement about Stevenson but if we don't engage in the irrational fear of the USSR there is no need to elect a general.

Dosns't matter tho...Ike totally turned on the people who elected him and gave us Earl Warren which, given that the nation was a step away from fascism, was a good thing...
