The enemies have changed, but an eerily similar situation exists. There are a number of similarities, too, between this administration and JFK's. Both Presidents tendencies to not want to press their individual agendas too hard comes to mind. And both men share the same broad, intellectual view of the world and understand the futility and danger of constant conflict. Let us hope Obama will take decisive action and do what needs to be done, a total withdrawal from Iraq and Afghanistan. Our country cannot afford to bankrupt itself over ragtag bands of disjointed Islamic fundamentalists, even if they did get one lucky shoy here on 9/11. With heightened border security, we will not need to constantly invest billions in conflicts all across the globe.Jack Jodellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02165430903903838990noreply@blogger.com
