Obama made this a campaign promise and was elected on it. Besides, these are troops that the Pentagon has requested.
If anything you could argue that there's not a clear endgame on the table that this action is in support of, but no, you have to make this about Bush.
Afghanistan isn't 5X win-less either, but the definition of success is much different from Iraq. We need to kill Bin Laden and let every tribal leader in Afghanistan know that if they support terrorism we'll fire bomb their villages.
