In reply to the discussion: President Obama, Secretaries of State and Defense John Kerry and Chuck Hagel [View all]davidpdx
(22,000 posts)29. I agree with you
I understand people are worrisome of another war. I don't want another war either.
I understand people feel the country was duped by Bush going into Iraq. I opposed the war like most here and don't want to see that again.
DUers in general seem to distrust Obama for the most part. I'm not one of those. I still believe he will do the right thing.
The Obama=Bush meme is getting old.
Disagree with his policies, what he says, and does. But insults are not necessary. Not of President Obama or Secretary of State John Kerry.

Actually I think they are trapped by Obama's red line so now their priority is to save face.

The one thing I'm certain of them is that they wouldn't trump up intelligence.

Given these leaders are so great, why have they turned their heads to 40,000 Americans who die
