TRANSLATION: Our military leaders have stood up to the Community Organizer and told him to start acting like a leader, or have it fail on his watch.

White House staffers (consisting of college kids and former community organizers) freak out when they realize they have been cornered and cry to the press.

Awesome. Now all the pressure that they heaped on Bush, who couldn’t afford a failure on Afghanistan either, has landed square on Obama’s skinny shoulders.

"Present" just isn't enough when you're President.

Back to Obama's biggest problem....He can't make a decision.

Iraq was a done deal when he got in...and phase one stabilizing the economy was in the works.

His first big mistake was not ordering "DRILL" when people were putting bucks into their tanks instead of other goods.

“The White House meanwhile acknowledged some members of Obama’s team have been reading “Lessons in Disaster,” a book about flawed decision-making in the Vietnam war.”

White House ButtHeads, how about reading books on how we won WW2? Too bad Obama, et. al. are NOT too stupid to fail.

Barry campaigned on winning in Afghanistan by increasing the force and finding Osama Bin Laden. He’s so far failed on both counts.

And the man who could never make a decision as a state legislator still can’t make one as president.

No one put that sorry wuss on the spot. He is Commander in Chief of the U.S. Armed Forces. He’s supposed to be doing his job and have already discussed the issue with his Generals.

For all of us with immediate family serving their country, wherever they may be, I want this SOB POTUS held accountable 100% and for you brain-dead out there, it isn’t Bush’s fault.

If, the day after Inauguration Day, every Republican president is to blame for every military death, every damned “homeless” vagrant on the streets, then Obama owns all of this lock, stock and barrel.

Obama has refused to quickly approve a request from his commanders for a major troop build-up in Afghanistan, insisting first on a full vetting of the current strategy.

Hey. Don't Bother Me.

The picture of our guys walking forward on land they don’t want, and that doesn’t want them, is heart-breaking. Knowing that the traitor in the White House won’t let them do their job of finding and dispatching the enemy, is infuriating. I guess we’ll wait, but not patiently.

"insisting first on a full vetting of the current strategy"

Couldn't be bothered to vet any of his staff but, when it's the military and lives are on the line with every passing hour, NOW he wants a full vetting?

Obama put Obama on the spot, not the military. Obama has had almost 10 months to decide the strategy after 4 years of claiming Bush's was wrong and yet all he has decided thus far is to strip the troops of any defense.

Commentators on the left say the military ought to keep its advice private without trying to influence public debate, with New York Times columnist Frank Rich accusing the generals of an attempt to "try to lock him (Obama) in" on Afghanistan.

Gee. I wonder if these commentators on the left would have had this much concern about the military keeping its advice private if President Bush were still at the helm????

NOT!!!

We’ll probably pull the troops out. President Obama will order us to pull the troops out probably around ‘11 just in time for total withdrawal by the election season in ‘12.
