Porkins Policy Review

This is the most ludicrous claim floating amongst liberal circles right now. Don’t for a second think that president Obama’s decision to leave Iraq wasn’t political. Yes, president Bush had set a time table in motion that would have seen troops exiting Iraq now, but this is an election year folks, and the president wants to be able to say that he brought the troops home during the 2012 campaign. It’s no an evil conspiracy it’s just politics. That is how the game is played. We unfortunately don’t live in an altruistic world were we do things for the benefit of others. Politicians do things to benefit themselves and their grasp on power. This also extends to democratic leaders in the west who claim to be defenders of freedom and human rights.
