Jonathan Alter (Goebbels Award Hopeful)
"This is the hand he's been dealt by history, he's a reluctant warrior, it's not as if he's converted to being a cowboy so people recognize the difference between him and former president Bush."
- The 'he' noted above is Obama.
Let me get this right, Obama's been forced to continue the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan as well as lighting up Libya by the "hand he's been dealt by history"...But "former president Bush" was just a "cowboy."
Ok, let me think this one through out-loud:
- The Middle East is in the process of implosion, and Obama is taking sides...I have no problem with that. But lets be honest, Obama made the decision to get involved on his own (or was pushed by the French, Hillary, the U.N. or someone) and we weren't directly threatened or attacked.
- Bush had no intention of going to war with anyone. In fact, he hardly made mention of foreign policy during his election campaign...If I recall right, however, the U.S. was directly threatened and attacked on 9/11/01. Call me an 'imperialist pig', but this was a justified reason to go to war. The choices of Iraq and Afghanistan can be debated, but the choice to take the war to the Islamists instead of allowing them to fight on our turf was a sound one.
What it comes down to is Liberals will do everything they can to defend THEIR WAR PRESIDENT (even though his decision to continue and go to war are entirely his own), and continue to attack President Bush (even though the U.S. was attacked on 9/11).
I'm sure Alter and his supposedly nonpartisan journalist buddies don't see it this way, but it is what it is. And what it is is a load of crap; propaganda at its finest...Keep this in mind when you watch/read/listen to the Mainstream Media. And keep in mind the old Russian saying: 'There is no News in the Truth, and there is no Truth in the News.'
