Better than Bush

September 1, 2014

If we can believe the news coming from Iraq, it seems President Obama and Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel have accomplished more in the past few days than Dick Cheney and George Bush accomplished in seven years with thousands of troops and Army generals who were failures.

The air strikes directed by President Obama and carried out by Secretary of the Defense Hagel have aided the Kurds and Iraq troops to gain positions in Iraq. This was accomplished apparently without any loss of troops or material.

There should have been no Iraq war in the first place, but this may be the way to settle it once and for all.

President Obama brought all the troops home that were in Iraq, now there seems a need to do the same in Afghanistan.
