I can't help but feel bad for this president. Kudos to him for not wanting this to fall to the next president. Dick Cheney and George Bush are two of the biggest blemishes on modern American history.
This war is total bullshit. Afghanistan will NEVER be able to rule themselves. All "the best and brightest" left over thirty years ago. 90% of the population is illiterate and have P.T.S.D. !
Don't tell me your trying to get Al Qaeda!
I thought you fuckers had Navy SEALS and nukes!
Head the words of Eisenhower on Jan.17, 1961!
America is being liquidated by the Military Industrial Complex!
Cheney, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz... and Bush... were drawing down ActDu military, and closing bases through both terms... when they were ALSO committing forces to Iraq and Afghanistan. Those came mostly from Reserve components, and resulted in multiple deployments for those Reserves. Obama is now building up the ActDu side again... because the Reserves are beyond exhaustion.
That's the legacy Cheney left, and for which he should be ashamed.
