actually, powerclown, if you had the faintest idea what you were talking about it might appear to you more obvious that things have, in fact, changed and changed pretty substantively from the period of the bush people. the rejection of torture as a matter of state policy for example. it is not at all obvious that the obama administration's policy toward israel is going to resemble that of the bush people at all--but you'd have to read a bit of information that does not come pre-chewed by whatever non-sourced conservative source you seem to confuse with something accurate. the policy toward iran really could not be more different than the one-dimensional dick-waving of the bush people. the "residual troop deployment" i assume speaks to iraq, which is entirely a bush fiasco and yet another of the fetid, stupid gifts those idiots left the rest of us that keeps on giving.
i think that there should be prosecution of the architects of the bush people's torture policies.
but i outlined in another thread the problems i see with this happening, and so far it seems to me that what i put in that thread's been pretty accurate.
