Been saying it for a while, Suzan, but it is tough to be heard over all of the kool-aid drinkers.
He doesn’t sound like a neocon, Badtux, but he doesn’t keep extending the Afghanistan mission, giving the Israeli whackoes a pass, staging the Security Theater, and continuing the imperial Presidency, so functionally there isn’t much difference.
]]>About the only good thing I can say about Obama is that he isn’t a batshit crazy lunatic neocon. By this time in the Lesser Bush administration, Junior had already gotten us into one war, and was already in the process of moving troops to Kuwait for the next war. The neocons would have us lining up troops at Iran’s border right now if they still had access to power. Keeping the neocons away from the reins of power was well worth voting for Obama over McCain. I just wish it hadn’t been a choice between two Republicans (an insane one, and a sane one) in that election :(. (And no, I did *not* vote for Obama in the primaries… what, you think I’m an idiot Kossite? Heh!).
