The "loopholes" and changes he's talking about are things which should have been done 2 years ago, not now after the country has turned against his war of adventure, but at least it would have been a starting point that wouldn't have been a huge "screw you" to the people who just voted against those policies.
Perhaps Newsmax isn't the best place to get a view of what's really going on?
At what point are you going to quit attempting to use the results of the past election dishonestly? The election was nto a referendum on the Iraq War, much as you lefties and the MSM keep trying to brainwash everyone into believing.
It was a referendum on conservatives' dissatsifaction with the Republicans in Congress.
Then there's the fact that you keep attempting to portray the people's dissatisfaction with the conduct of the war with the war itself.
A change in strategy and tactics would make your continual assault on his "failed policies" and dishonest representation of what the people voted for irrelevant.
