Obama Is Having Greater Success Taking Terrorists Out of Commission Than Bush DidYou would have to be an absolute head in the sand fool or a kool aid drinking wingnut idiot not to realize the Obama administration is doing more on the 'war on terror' than Bush and Cheney ever did. But that of course would require you to fully understand where the real 'war on terror' should have been fought all along. The vast majority of wingnuts do not have enough self-respect or integrity to admit the invasion of Iraq was the historic blunder that it was.
“The numbers of high value targets that we are successfully reaching out to or identifying through good intelligence” from both the CIA and intelligence agencies from US allies has made the difference, he said. “We have better human intelligence; we know where the terrorists are moving. Because of the dialogue and the tone of the dialogue between us and our friends and allies...the trend line against terrorism is positive, and that’s what we want. If we have a positive trend line we have a safer country.” - National Security Adviser, Gen. Jim Jones (Ret.)
Even what little good the previous administration did in Afghanistan or Pakistan late in their second term was prompted by Obama calling them out and embarrassing them on their obvious failures to do what was right.
With the Obama administration moving troops out of Iraq and our relentless pounding of al-Qaeda and Taliban targets in Afghanistan and Pakistan since he took office, you would have to be awfully dumb or seriously uninformed not to agree with General Jones. Or maybe just a wingnut in denial.
