Pennsylvania’s former GOP Senator, Rick Santorum, slammed President Barack Obama on his handling of the Iraq war Sunday, saying on CBS’s “Face the Nation” that the United States had “lost the war in Iraq” because Obama was pulling troops out, leaving Iran as the dominating force in the country.
How the fuck much more can we win in Iraq?
We defeated the Iraqi Army.
We captured and executed Saddam Hussein.
We blew up Uday and Kusay (sorry, I have no idea how to spell the pricks' names)
There is nothing left to win.
It's like we're the home team and we have the lead after the top of the ninth and Santorum is insisting we play the bottom of the inning. And go into extra innings for the hell of it. Except it's not baseball and people are getting killed.
We have already won everything there was to win. We have done more winning than Charlie Sheen. What could we possibly have to gain by staying even longer?
“To be in a position where, really, the Iranians now have more sway over the Iraqi government than the United States just shows the weakness of our diplomatic effort, the weakness of this president in being able to shape the battlefield, if you will,” Santorum said
