unfortunatley, it is OUR war. As was Iraq. once they start attaching a President's name to it then must wonder if Pres acts in what is best for own political future and legacy or for us - or more importanlty for the soldiers fighing the war and their families.
I'll watch. I hope "Obama's War" will be as good as Frontline's "Bush's War". That documentary was awesome and great! It really explained it so well from start to finish how it all happened. I wish it had been even longer! Thank you Frontline and PBS!
This one little statement won't rally many people but I totally agree with archurus33333. Instead of a two part system we can elect the best person instead of voting for the person chosen by others. We the people don't have a chance to elect the best person if only two people in this country are running. Screw this two party system.
maybe u should pay attention to the election BEFORE election time. there was close to a dozen, if not more, candidates running last election. granted the media only favors a few of them. but if more ppl stayed informed during non election times, it wouldnt be a right or left choice.

There is only one party in the U.S: the Corporate War Party. Vote independent in 2012. In the meantime vote out the war mongers in Congress in 2010. "In order to rally people, governments need enemies. They want us to be afraid, to hate, so we will rally behind them. And if they do not have a real enemy, they will invent one in order to mobilize us." --Thich Nhat Hahn - Vietnamese monk, activist and writerr.
Hear hear on what you said, arcturus33333! Thich Nhat Hahn - (Vietnamese monk, activist and writer) was so right! That IS what governments do. George Orwell spoke about this manufacturing of an enemy to justify a perpetual state of war and as we all know, war is good for business. The whole world is one big business! If you haven't already, see the famous speech Ned Beatty delivers in movie "Network". See the scene here: Money Speech w w w (.)youtube(.)com /watch?v=zI5hrcwU7Dk

It was Bush's war, and now it is Obama's. I have no problem with the title.

This is a silly attempt to secure him a second term.
Wartime presidents have most often gotten a second term.
