The middle east is a different story. The instability over there is a threat to our national security. The president's number one responsibility is to protect the country and it's citizens from threats internal and abroad.
Apples to oranges.

This is at once both hilarious and pathetic. First, the notion that Iraqis are a threat to United States security. I'll leave that one alone for now. Then there is the theory that clobbering terrorists is a good way to protect our national security. Again, I'll let that one go. But here, above, we've got somebody concluding that you and I should be paying trillions on construction half way around the world to benefit Iraqis, but not in the center of the United States to benefit Americans. Actually, it is far more pathetic than hilarious.
