Just curious, but what has he done that's made him better than Bush?
|
I can't say much because I don't talk about things I don't know much, but at least he isn't bombing other countries for their ultimate secret bombs of atomic doom that actually don't exist.. Or something like that.

....But he's bombing others because they are bad people and has done so without the approval of anyone in congress which is required by law. In the case of both of Bushes wars, he at least went to the legislature and had an up or down vote on the action(s) taken, so the war is as much a fault of Bush as it is the lawmakers that approved of the action in the first place.

It's true...
and also silly.
Because he'd totally get the votes in congress for the war anyway.
He's basically argueing for more executive control.... for the hell of it.
I mean, you could argue that originally he didn't want this to be labeled as third "american war" but the people are doing that anyway.
It doesn't help that the general Obama argument is that "If we stop helping them, Nato is too incompetant to handle the job themselves and is relying too much on America."
