"... and don't you think it's odd that no one brings up possibility that Obama's putting emphasis on Afghanistan is just a ploy? What I mean is, he has to push the getting out of Iraq stuff to keep super liberals content but knows that puts him on tentative ground with independents who don't trust him regarding foreign policy - thus the Afghanistan ruse, which makes him look like he's not shy when it comes to the military but which of course is all just talk, conjecture, since the States really can't do anything about Afghanistan right now - in short, he gets to talk tough for free since nothing's going to come of it. I'm not saying it's not in a sense smart on his part, I'm just curious as to why no one is mentioning or possibly even bothering to notice this very plausible scenario..."
