Just announced on Fox. Obama was expected to announce whether he was going to accept the request of his top commanders, and some Republicans in Congress, and send more troops to Afghanistan. Instead, according to Fox, he has announced that he "can't make that decision without more information."
The translation is clear. The Left is raising hell over us even being in Afghanistan and simply will tolerate nothing other than our surrender in Afghanistan. So Obama is waiting until he can gin-up some "information" that will allow him to deny the request for additional troops.
He doesn’t know what to do, that’s all there is to it. It goes to his vast experience.
The U.S. military is not built for these stupid "Peace Corps on Steroids" nation-building exercises, and this country simply cannot afford this sh!t.
I miss George Bush, Dick Cheney and Colin Powell. I wonder how much it would take for all branches of the Armed Services to turn on this administration. Maybe that’s the answer to all of this crap... physically clean house.
Hate to say it...But the libs need to protest en mass at the Whitey House. With all the Obama Hitler signs they can draw.
BS - the Left doesn't care one way or the other. Have they been protesting the war since Obama got into office?
Time to bring our men and women home and stop playing games with their lives with stupid PC ROEs and a corrupt POTUS. Afghanistan makes a sinkhole look like a penthouse suite.
Yes, he has to get with Axelrod and Rahm to determine the damage among his supporters in the Left if he authorizes and the damage he incurs among the middle if he denies support or authorizes. He’s screwed either way.
but saying he “can’t make that decision without more information” sounds very Presidential.

LOL. Don’t be a warthog!
Where are the large peace demonstrations in major cities?
When will Code Punk call for impeachment?
Steel yourself for that video of the last helicopter out on the roof of the US embassy in Kabul. We’ve seen that before and we will see it again - how gutless Democrats end our wars.
