IN CASE WE FORGOT WHO STARTED THIS MESS
Just in case anyone's memory is short ... here's how we got into this mess.
And PLEASE listen to the very last line of the report. It concerns our current leader, Obama Maximus.

BUSH FOREIGN POLICY DAMAGE
Here is an interesting, thoughtful, had-to-argue-with piece by a writer name Ralph Peters regarding the damage done by the Bush Administration war policies, and how it has handcuffed our military — and how it will certainly justify this increasingly insane liberal administration — in the application of necessary force.
I found nothing in it that one can point to and say, "this is wrong," so it is certainly well-worth the read. It's not overly long (as pieces about strategy go) and should be completely read, because the points it make are already becoming evident.
Liberals Note: This isn't an "I Hate Bush" stomp-your-feet tantrum. This is a look at how good intent can be mis-applied by intelligentsia regardless of political denomination. It's also a sorry look at how democracy is not an altar when war has to be waged.
The entire piece appeared in Armed Forces Journal and is called The Damage Done: The Bush Administration Discredited Crucial Strategic Concepts.
It can be read fully HERE, and is a must-read.
Thanks to Capt. J for the heads up.
