Obama being a war hawk was the most surprising part of his presidency.



ya that was super disappointing. he was a neo-con man thru and thru. His foreign policy was no different that W's. :(


That's a bit much


Maybe a bit but not a whole lot.


Yes.

But I've never confused him with a great President. In my book he was akin to a good "game manager"



Probably a decent description.

Considering the ones who came before and after him, a game manager would look like Jesus... and much of the press thought he was.

No the difference was if Bush warned or threatened you he followed through with it. He did not make red lines and keep moving them or fucking with countries half-assed. Honestly do you think anything close to Benghazi would have happened under him? The 173rd would have been dropped pell mell on the compound within the first 2-3 hours or some more spec ops guys would have been there.


You have a simplistic view of everything.
