#3 Well, fuck. This ain't good news. I guess they hate us more than they love the mirrorball. Worthless sack of turds, the lot of 'em. |

#2 No it won't officially be "Obama's War" until the media start running their US soldier body count again. Until that occurs, then the media narrative will be that Obama has inherited "Bush's Botched War". |

#1 However, there were two reasons for Obama to push the Afghan conflict during the election. First was to present the meme that Afghanistan was a Bush failure and that Iraq (even thought the surge succeeded) was a mistake because it distracted from where the "real" fight should have been. The second, and more important, was to show that he was not a leftist peacenick and that as president he would fight a war. Mission accomplished, and now he has his war. |
