"We have an enemy today that senses weakness, knows how to find it, and then goes after it," Wenstrup said. "I think Iraq maybe thought they could [defend themselves]. This was an opportunity for us to have another ally in the region. I came home from Iraq feeling that we liberated 25 million people." LOL. What "enemy" is this guy referring to? The U.S. was fighting a "war on terror" in Iraq, wasn't it?
I hope this dude can apply the lessons he learned from this idiocy to his work in Congress.

Our failure in Iraq goes a hell of a lot deeper than Obama. Its rooted in the formation of the UN and the end of victory.
In WWII we didn’t fight to force Germany and Japan to negotiate, we fought to defeat and pacify them.
