Think back for a moment about Obama's views on terrorism pre-election as opposed to what they are now.
I could have sworn Obama felt that there was no war on terror and that Al-Queda was just a rag tag group of common criminals that needed to be "brought to justice."
And what happened to his stance on "talking to our enemies"? Wasn't he going to go talk to Ahmedinijad and get him to see the error of his ways?
In fact, wasn't Obama supposed to extend an olive branch to our enemies and bring us all together to hold hands and sing kumbaya?
I'm just wondering what happened to this plan because it seems like every aspect of it has failed miserably. In fact, I distinctly remember Conservatives arguing quite emphatically that this would be exactly what would happen.
Now, everything Conservatives said would happen has happened and everything Liberals said would work has failed.
But now, it seems that instead of admitting that the Conservatives were right, the Liberals just kind of swept the whole thing under the carpet.
And then there is that pesky little fact that there was not a single successful post 911 terrorist attack on our soil in the 7 years Bush was in office. There have been two in Obama's first year alone. (Yes, the dud bomb counts.)
So, I'm wondering, are Liberals now convinced that there really is a war going on or do they now think Obama has betrayed his principles?
Or, do they just intend on blaming the Bush administration for creating a situation that is so dire that even their lord and savior can not solve.
It seems to me that either Obama has radically changed his views or there must be two Obamas.
