ABC News: Reports that former VP Dick Cheney is back in the political trenches, he was critical of the Obama take that Iraq success is down to their policies since they took office. The former VP is right, the turn around in Iraq is down to the Bush surge, if Bush 43 had take Democratic advice the country would now be in state of civil war or at war with Iran. If the sole success of the Obama Administration is Iraq what does that say about its polices when it comes to Afghanistan, Iran, the fight against Al Qaeda that takes in Pakistan. The one war that Obama didn't want to fight could be the war that he needs to keep his hand in, otherwise he will look like Jimmy Carter.
