#1 It seems like the donks are a package deal. One wins and they all win.

#2 I meant to post this under Hillary Clinton article.

A little thanks to George Bush, General Petraeus, and John McCain. No thanks to the surrender first donks.

#5 Subjectively speaking, in Iraq the US = US-Allies won a BATTLE, NOTSOMUCH A "WAR" OR "GWOT" AS RADICAL ISLAMISM ISN'T ABSOL DEFEATED OR DESTROYED YET.

Iff the 10th Mountain, etc. US MILDIVS like not having to use their weapons in combat = righteous indignation/amgst, the US GOVT-NPE + USDOD has better make sure IRAN + ISLAMISTS DON'T GO NUKULAR VEE PAN-ISLAMIST NUCLEARIZATION + STRATEGIC WEAPONIZATION, THAT IRAN EVOLS INTO A DE FACTO WESTERN ALLY IN THE GWOT, NOT A PRO-TERROR NUCLEAR ENEMY, OR AN ANTI-US BELLIGERENT "MODERATE".

* CLINTON ADMIN = DUBYA ADMIN = NEW OBAMA/BAMELOT ADMIN > Iff PAN-GOVT US-WESTERN PERTS BELIEVE THAT IRAN IS A PROB, THEN EITHER MIL INVADE AND OCCUPY IRAN, ETC. TO PRECLUDE A MORE DANGEROUS FUTURE NUCLEAR-TERROR THREAT TO THE US-WORLD, OR IN THE ALTERN GET IRAN TO REFORM + ON OUR SIDE.

* GENERAL DOUGLAS MACARTHUR SAYING > "NO ONE HATES WAR MORE THAN THE [combat]SOLDIER", becuz a Soldier(s) ultimately will be placed in the forefront of REPAIRING OR REPLACING WHAT HE HIMSELF HELPED TO KILL ANDOR DESTROY, TO PROTECT HIS OWN!

#6 Watch Obama try to steal credit for the win. Or, more accurately, the Press will try to give him the credit.

He deserves no credit, it was in spite of him.
