Oh well, whatever works.

Just for clarity, it wasn't the evil war on terror that he (Obama) had a problem with. It was the shift of assets to Iraq, away from the hunt for ObL. Frankly, so did a lot of people I knew at the time. I was in the Navy, CB (SeaBees), and there was a lot of head scratching going on. We felt like 'Excuse me, we aren't finished here (Afghanistan).
