After President Barack Hussein Obama meets with Gen. Stanley McChrystal, the Commander of U.S. and NATO forces in Afghanistan, Mr. Obama will be painted into a political corner from which he cannot escape. In an upcoming article in Rolling Stone magazine, soon to be on the newsstands, McChrystal and his aides were critical of Obama's handling of the war in Afghanistan. McChrystal was hand-picked by the Obama administration to fight the battle against the Taliban. However, I am pleased to see that a high-ranking member of the U.S. military has decided to put the defense of his nation before politics....

General Stanley McChrystal, the top U.S. commander and strategist of the Afghan war, is prepared to offer his resignation Wednesday for mocking and disparaging President Barack Obama and his national security team in a Rolling Stone interview, two military officials said Tuesday.

I have received an email several times entitled "Are We Arrogant?", showing pictures of cemeteries of soldiers killed in war on foriegn soil.

Debbie Wasserman Schultz then goes on a tirade in response: "I think the place for a woman is at the top of the House of Representatives," said Wasserman Schultz. "It's evidence they long for the days when a woman's place was in the kitchen. Now...

Last year, when he was running for President Barack Obama described Afghanistan as the "good war." He promised to see this war through to the end. Over a month ago General Stanley McChrystal asked for additional troops to get the job done. The President sat on his hand-picked General's recommendation for three weeks until it leaked out. Now he says he needs to think about what to do (don't forget the POTUS fired the last General for requesting more troops). What has the President been doing since word leaked out? Lets see, he took the opportunity to experience the joy...
