This week Barack Obama called the war in Iraq a "war of choice." That was an interesting choice of words and one the president should really think about.
After all, what was the choice? Was the choice whether or not to let evil remain in power and ultimately threaten the lives of Americans and freedom loving people in the region, versus going in and taking him out? Good versus evil, was that the choice President Obama was talking about? If it is, then the choice was clear and we had no other good option other than to invade.
Congress supported the "choice" at the time with a vote of about 75% in favor and 25% opposed, lest we forget.
Mr. Obama in his typical condescending attitude and holier than thou approach intimated that the option off not invading would have probably been a better one. The only trouble is that BHO and his liberal friends never have an alternative to offer; instead they attempt to gain the high ground in the argument with cute phrases and platitudes, instead substance and a plan of their own.
Now that BHO is in charge, he has nowhere to hide from his own rhetoric and soon enough the American people with see the results of his "choices."
