That's Bush you're talking about, right? Obama fought tooth and toe nail to stay away from the war table. And then changed when he got in the same seat Bush sat in! But no credit to Bush!

*sigh* Wanting to refocus the war on terror to the arena that many people feel like it should be is not staying away from the war table. As near as I can tell he is sticking to that doctrine. As far as many, many people are concerned, we cannot get out of Iraq fast enough. However, that doesn't mean they don't want to fight those who attacked us where they actually live. It's not "Iraq or nothing".

Either way,

No I'm pretty sure it was Obama who authorized the limited attack recently.

That really doesn't sound credible, canam. And you have friends in the CIA/Special Forces?
