The real issue the Right has is when these investigations or policy quarrles look to the rest of the world as a divided rather than unified front, which emboldens our enemies. If it doesn't go down that road, fine. But if it does, I think it borders on sedition.

Personally, I don't think our primary focus is fighting the war on terrorism anymore, and that this is a very bad thing. I think the war is now focused on different and not particularly well-defined (or at least expressed) geo-political goals. Afghanistan was a part of the war on terror. Iraq was a massive diversion of attention and resources away from the war on terror.
BUT, I think we are committed to Iraq now and that there is no easy way to refocus resources on the war on terror in the short term. A longer term focus and probably a change in administration are needed.
