"Conway: U.S. Withdrawal Deadline Boosts Taliban in Afghan War"

The top U.S. Marine general made a sharp departure from the White House’s talking points on Afghanistan, saying President Barack Obama’s promised July 2011 deadline to start withdrawing troops from the country had given “sustenance” to the Taliban.

"sus·te·nance
1 a : means of support, maintenance, or subsistence : living
b : food, provisions; also : nourishment
2 a : the act of sustaining : the state of being sustained
b : a supplying or being supplied with the necessaries of life
3 : something that gives support, endurance, or strength "

Isn't that, then, like saying Barry is giving aid and comfort to the enemy?

Is the General right?

Will this Marine General last longer than McChrystal?

The General is almost right....he isn't "President", he's a usurper.
