Run away from things like finding Osama Bin Laden and ending the Taleban and Al Qeada? No, hopefully our next President will actually get the fucks that attacked us. This President doesn't really think about that anymore. This President has made such a mess of things that the greatest military in the world is losing two wars at the same time. Only the biggest fuck up in history could arrange for this to happen.
Martin Luther King Jr."Wars are poor chisels for carving out peaceful tomorrows"
It must be sad to live with so much hate, all over politics..
"A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself."
Tullius Cicero (106-43 BC)
WHO exactly, is going to do all that? Or I should say bring it about, since NONE of those damned politicians do a damned thing themselves.
The President that preceeded this President did his damnedest to ignore radical Islam, and left Iraq for this President to deal with. Yet you would have us believe a like-minded President would somehow go against the loony extremists that drive his political party and actually accomplish something?
And how is the US military losing two wars? It is engaged in actual war only on one front, and I must've missed where we didn't run the Taliban into the hills and a neighboring country. It's never going to get better than that, and it never was.
The only thing being lost in Iraq is the political battle here at home because people are drowned in negative, overly-sensationalized leftis crap through the MSM.
The military phase of invading Iraq was almost textbook flawless, and it's been over since a couple of weeks after it began. The only "war" being waged in Iraq is sectarian, with the US caught in the middle, but definitely not engaged in waging a war. Instead, they're playing beat cop.

If the freedom of speech is taken away
then dumb and silent we may be led,

Limited wars, Gulf War and a few other small ones did work.
Boy, Marines are always breaking something, aren't they?
