Obama should end the wars.
If his legislative goals are blocked, then he should be pragmatic and help repair the country in ways that he is able to act unilaterally. One unilateral decision he can make is to bring everyone home ASAP.

8. Well, I pretty much DO
... with good reason, too.

That doesn't mean ending these wars is not my desire, btw. Much the contrary.

11. Maybe not the next day, but soon thereafter. You don't go
up against the MIC without consequences. Ask JFK supporters.

They're not going to allow anyone, not even the President of the United States, to take away their hundreds of billions of free money because of principle.

5. He just said he expects us to be in Afghanistan another 4 years
no word on how he plans to pay for it or why he thinks more time there will make any difference.
