Barack Obama said in the debate last night that “no US soldier ever dies in vane because he they are carrying out the missions of the Commander and Chief”. Does he really believe that?

He has been talking about his resistance to the Iraq war. In his now famous speech in 2002…which he relives all the time…his last sentence was:

Nor should we allow those who would march off and pay the ultimate sacrifice, who would prove the full measure of devotion with their blood, to make such an awful sacrifice in vain.

Now that he is closer than ever to being the Commander and Chief, all of a sudden it is important for those who would make the ultimate sacrifice know that it is OK as long as they are following his orders.
