Barack Obama: “These additional forces are now at the highest operational tempo to date.”

I obviously have a room in his head.

We’ve now fought a war, spent billions and billions of dollars, you know, put enormous strain on our military. A lot of people have died. And it feels like we’re back where we were before we started the war, except maybe a little bit worse…

That was fantastic. I was a little tall for it.

Every president here today, as different as we are, has tried our best to uphold the values that John McCain and Mitt Romney believed in no less than I did.
