I see big differences in many areas, but I was referring to the policies
toward the ending of the war in Iraq and the growing conflict in
Afghanistan and Pakistan. I realize its been only a week plus, but Obama
hasn't said anything about changing the Status of Forces agreement that
Bush negotiated with Iraq to have all troops out of combat in a year,
and out of the country in 2011. Fairly close to Obama's position. As for
Afghanistan and Pakistan, Obama has said that is the primary
battleground in the war on terrorism. In fact, I worry that he would
redeploy all those soldiers from Iraq to Afghanistan, as he said he
would do, as that would be a real quagmire; just ask the British and
Russians.

Now that he is president, he seems to see the wisdom in the Bush approach.
If you can't see the difference that is another life skill you need to
work on.
