Obama, like most Conmgressional dems, foolishly bought into this war because, post 9/11, they cravenly felt they had to be in favor of some war somewhere.

Personally, I hoped Obama backed this war for purely pragmatic political reasons, and would find ways to end it once he was elected by people who he knew wanted it ended.

Turned out I was wrong, and Obama is pro-war.

It's all very sad. I now expect that his war will undermine his Presidency, and he'll be a one-term President.
