Obama's Dithering Dims Americans' View on Afghanistan and the War on Terror - Peter Roff (usnews.com)

Obama's Dithering Dims Americans' View on Afghanistan and the War on Terror - Peter Roff (usnews.com)WhaB. Mehsud was killed by a U.S. rocket attack on August. 7. Paybacks are a be-ach.. THere's no point in Obama's dithering unless it's to develop political cover for some half-measure. McChrystal is his guy. If he's not to trust in the judgement of the general he appointed, then who's Obama listening to? Carl Levin? Rahm Emmanuel? Yeah, well those dudes studied lots of wars, I'm sure, on the pages of the New York Times. This delay on Obama's part is a sick joke. What's Obama going to learn that he hasn't been briefed on already? That Karzai bit was a stall, and now the stall has evaporated. What a limelight seeking, political, dithering mess the stressed troops in the field have inherited in this president! t's this article about?
