Just a thought.

On this issue Big alignment has a point, we're just fostering the next batch of religious fanatics. If the USA closed Gitmo and sent the prisoners of war to a Moslem country for trial (Saudi Arabia, for example), Terrorists would think twice before attacking the US, because under their own laws, they would be "excommunicated" ( a fate worse than death)

There will never be a time when the US is totally detached from the middle east.
We need to be where the religious fanatics are to stop them. It's a lot easier being where they are than trying to monitor them from afar.
That doesn't mean we have to be at war, just that we need to have military presence there.

So that probably explains why the Obama administration is handing out 100 million to Moslem countries for "green energy": its a bribe. Saudi palaces need solar panels, right? So what if seniors in US rural areas don't have access to Meals on Wheels- or the fact that Low income diabetics can't get their SNAP food credit increased. Foreign countries' interests are more important, at least thats what it looks like.

How is Obama doing? Well, its hard to tell the difference between Bush and Obama: Both allowed gitmo to remain open, both sent troops overseas to fight a war in two countries- with no clear exit strategy, both tried a stimulus that didn't tranlate into lower unemployment numbers AND both presidents have not vetoed one single spending bill.So I really can't figure out why Democrats hate Bush- his policies and obama's look almost identical.

Indeed...meet the new boss, same as the old one. There isn't a dime's worth of difference between the two.

both Bush and Obama have another thing in common- Bush never called Republicans to task for overspending and Obama rubberstamps anything Reid and Pelosi bring to the Oval Office.
