Bear with me

I'm different from a lot of progressives. A lot of progressives are against war for any reason. I disagree. I feel if there is a "Clear and Present Danger" (credit the book and movie) if it is necessary to deal with a threat do it.

I supported going into Afghanistan and getting Osama Bin Laden (who eventually was found in Pakistan). In other words, there was a reason to be there.

I did not support the Iraq invasion and occupation. In my opinion there was no threat, and as we found out every reason given was a lie.


Now onto today's news... I feel North Korea is a threat. I feel Iran is a threat. I would support any invasions of those countries.

I do not feel Syria is a threat unless they attack Israel. Otherwise it is their civil war and we should not be involved.

What I saw

So I got at least to a point what I wanted to hear last night. I heard a plan, and most importantly I heard an exit stragedy. Good now I want to hear how it will all be paid for.

One more thing I would love to see ANY so-called journalist who has Dick Cheney on ask why do you attack President Obama when if you and Bush had a plan we wouldn't be where we are today in this nightmare? Also why would he accuse Obama of wanting to cut and run in Afghanistan when Cheney did it not once but twice? Why isn't the so-called liberal media asking him that.

Questions

So I will ask what I asked Bush when he escalated the troops in Iraq the same questions to President Obama for Afghanistan

What is the mission
What is the exit stragedy

Bush never gave the answers I hope Obama does.
