Has someone told Obama he can't vote present as the President?  Has someone told Obama the President is there to make decisions...even difficult ones?  Yes, Obama you will anger your left wing base by sending more troops, and yes Obama, you will anger those on the right if you don't send troops...pull your big boy pants up and decide.

What's more important? rioting moonbats or dead soldiers?

Now that's a good one.  He sends more troops and the leftards protest. He doesn't send more troops, and more soldiers die in battle and the anti-war libtards protest anyway.

Judging from the news coverage this morning, it appears the yet-to-be-revealed master plan is turning into "Run away, run away!!!"

I suspect that most of us here knew he was going to be a surrender-monkey.

Can't say I'm too disappointed.

I for one have no urge to race-off to Afghanistan or anywhere else with this guy as CinC. I think my bunlets deserve better if I don't come home.

Sure, America will get hit again but it isn't like they weren't warned. Maybe next time they think twice about electing slick-talking America-hating Marxist neophytes just because they offer Hope with a side of Free Pony. America can survive al Qaeda, it can't survive another Obama.

Americans are known for one thing if nothing else, short memories. Why do you think we have pampers boy running things?

There're really only two viable approaches:

1.  Go in heavy and stay long, nation-building, the Long War, all of that stuff.  It works, but it takes an enduring and unwavering commitment (Which the US government has proven to be exceptionally disinclined to invest in counterinsurgent conflicts since the Philippine Insurrection).

2.  Say "**** it" and go home.

Anything else is just a longer, more casualty-producing, and much more expensive version of #2.

This is the most Statist government we've had since we kicked out King George. The king was mad, and so is Obama.
