How many of those people were in the inner circle who started the war in Iraq and who created a torture program?

Do your own homework. Since you wanna play this stupid game I'm still trying to find someone, anyone in Obama's "inner circle" that served in the military.
Obama - NO
Biden - NO
H. Clinton - NO
Geithner - NO
Holder - NO
At this point, I'm tired of looking. Your next post is probably going to be how great you think it is that none of them have - WTFE.

Obama did not start a war, and he is ending the torture policy, so that does not apply.

classicman 06-16-2009 11:30 PM
