To: Secret Agent Man

Well I can see what you mean Secret Agent Man but as I see C-in-C or grunt in the field, when the rounds are coming in and troops are dying ‘’still deciding’’ is no answer and not an option. Its time to put more boots on the ground and start sending rounds down range. If this punk has no intention of doing this than perhaps its time to get out of Afganistan but given the history of the last eight years THATS not an option. But back to the main point more troops means fire superiority and that, literally, is what wins the the day in a gunfight. As my former Marine Corps 1st. Lieutenant brother(5th. Marines,3rd.Batt.) said of this point of view,( fire superiority) “Always does””.

I think you misunderstood me.

I am saying every president has to have SOME time to confer with his military leaders and his cabinet and staff people, and from all of that, come to a decision.

I am saying he still is using that line as a reason for no decision yet.

I am saying for Obama, I think his time is up for using that. He’s had more than enough time to figure out what to do.
