LBJ made the mistake that all central planners do and that was to take the military decisions out of the Pentagon and made them at the WH. That is what cost us the war and LBJ was the reason. Hussain is doing the same thing only he is going to run and leave the Afghanis to die.
Pray for America and Our Troops
Ping to 57. Agree on the decisions. Political leaders should make policy decisions; warriors should make tactical decisions. Carter was like LBJ in that respect.
Wasn't just the military decisions. It was just about everything.
Maybe I was wrong to object to your comparison of LBJ and Obama.
