Hagel OUT as US Defence Secretary - 2nd Term Blues


Lets Get Real:

As this blog has noted you can't be a liberal President home and abroad, something has to give, thus it can be assumed that Obama wants to see more action in Syria and Iraq, he might even want to win.   It would be an irony if President Obama when he leaves Office in 2017 will have Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria on a ground war footing, that would be the political gods having fun at the expense of President Obama.   The Democratic Nominee will not be happy, he or she will either have to support these Wars or ditch the Obama brand.   The President that was elected to end Wars would have just added Syria in to the mix.   It will be interesting to see who Obama nominates for the Defence post, will it be a strong hawk or dove, that will tell the real story of this sacking.
