Brain -> GOP chairman: Afghan war of Obamas choosing (7/2/2010 9:18:21 PM)

Bush should have thought about not leaving Afghanistan before the "Mission was Accomplished." He never should have invaded Iraq - which had nothing to do with 9/11. Bush, Cheney, Rummy, etc. should all be in jail, but again the law is not the same for everybody.

GOP chairman: Afghan 'war of Obama's choosing'
WASHINGTON – Republican chairman Michael Steele drew criticism from within his own party Friday, including calls to resign, after saying the 9-year-old commitment of U.S. troops to Afghanistan was a mistaken "war of Obama's choosing."
As criticism swelled, Steele issued a statement stressing his support for U.S. troops, but he did not acknowledge his factual error about a war launched by former President George W. Bush in response for the terror attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.
For Democrats, looking at a difficult environment ahead of November's midterm elections, the gaffe was an opportunity to test their strategy of attacking the GOP with its members' own words.
