He Can Always Blame Bush
Topic: Decline of the West

 

Over at the American Spectator, Ben Stein has pointed out that Obama's Afghanistan speech this week (it gave Chris Matthews a thrill up his leg and put him in mind of Henry V at Agincourt) was exactly the same as the ones Richard Nixon delivered forty years ago about "Vietnamizing" the Vietnam War. He figures “Afghanization” of the Afghan War will work out about as well. Alas, I believe he’s right.

 

Stein concludes: “Can Mr. Obama really be that ignorant of history and reality? Yes, he can.” Uh-huh.
