Mr. President, YOU are the Commander-in-Chief. This is YOUR job to make the big decisions.

David Broder had an interesting column today about the war. He ended it with a paragraph which I agree totally. To excerpt, "Richard Nixon was elected president in 1968 with a promise to end the Vietnam War. And if George Bush doesn't do it, a Democrat will win in 2008 with a promise to end the war in Iraq."
