“We're not at a point yet where he's made any decisions about asking for additional troops. His guidance from me and from the secretary of defense was to go out, assess where you are and tell us what you need. And we'll get to that point.”

Which is it Admiral Mullen? Our esteemed National Security Advisor (used to be Marine Corps Commandant and then whored himself out) told a round table of commanders and general officers in Afghanistan that if they ask for more troops President Obama is going to be like “WTF”. So is the Chairman now saying that the Obama admin policy is going to be to let our commanders lead or is he (Obama) with all of his operational experience going to “WTF” their requests for more resources.
