That’s because President Obama’s idea about reaching out to alleged “moderates” in the Taliban in Afghanistan sounds as nutty as President Ronald Reagan’s national security advisory, Robert “Bud” McFarlane, having this idea of reaching out to alleged “moderates” in Iran in the mid-1980s.
Even more goofy? Obama can be both smart and honest enough to admit we’re not winning the war in Afghanistan, then turn right around and broach this nutty idea about reaching out to “moderates.”
Meanwhile, in the clearest sign yet that Just.Another.Politician.™ plans to surrender not an inch of President Bush’s power grabs, Obama said that Bush had been, in essence, “cleaning up his act” on things like should-be-illegal indefinite detentions.
