This country NEEDS to come fully and firmly to the conclusion that the Iraq war was and is a huge strategic and human rights debacle. Obama is not going to move to a pro-war stance, rather he is surrounding himself with those whose stances are evolving towards his. They (former pro-war people) represent good role models for the two Joes "six-pack" and "plumber" to emulate.
Obama is using his supreme intelligence intelligently.
