It seems to me that if Obama used the election year rhetoric coming from the presidential hopefuls, he would be making things far more dangerous for our troops over there.


Yep. Just think how much safer our troops would have been in WWII if Truman had apologized to Hirohito.


It's more like when W apologized for Korans being flushed down the toilet. That wasn't really different other than he wasn't a democrat. Now however it is and the rhetoric from the presidential hopefuls is just so over the top it's sad. Our troops are the ones who have to deal with those mobs. Do you want those mobs bigger and angrier?

Fair play!
