I'm old school, if you go to war, you destroy the opposing army and you take the spoils of war to try and heal a people--Germany and Japan are good examples. Vietnam and Iraq, not so good examples. Too many wimps in government today.

Obama's staff recently said he is now strongly considering a visit to Iraq.

My question is, what took him so long?

NObama 2008!

Because the suggestion was made by Lindsay Graham on May 26. He knew it would escalate in the media and now he has to go to save face.

McCain made a good point when he said that Obama wants to meet with Abmadinejad. He said, words to the effect, "I think he should meet with General Petraeus."
