Does Obama deserve similar treatment? Absolutely.

bb is quite correct in that Bush's "joke" was greeted with outrage by the left. So should Obama's.

There is nothing, nothing remotely funny about flying killing machines (operated by people thousands of miles away who have no more connection to the effects of their actions than players of video games) that may or may not hit actual bad guys among the many innocent civilians they kill. They are an unmitigated evil and a stain on our national conscience.

The war stunk under Bush, and it stinks now. As concerns letting Obama off the hook for the many Bush policies he's continuing, even exacerbating, the hypocrisy among my fellow Mudcat lefties is getting very, very thick.
