Will they now have a mission or just provide more targets for the Taliban? Is the ‘bama reconsidering his plan not to win? Will the ROE’s still hogtie our troops, requiring them not to defend themselves? Will he give us an estimate of how many more of our boys will providing him photo ops in their coffins? Will anyone in the White House press corps ask these questions?

Agree. If the ROEs are not vastly loosened, additional troops will just be more targets for the Taliban. Also, I read elsewhere that the time-line to send these additional troops is up to 9 months. The USA takes most of a year to add 35,000 troops? Everything screams that Obama’s heart isn't in this and that he is looking for the exist even as he says that he intends to add troops. The enemy and the world sees that Obama is weak and that weakness is a strategic advantage for the enemy.
