Toby Harnden has a history of reporting actual truth about BO even before the election.

"He may have been hailed for his decisiveness..."

Too many people are mistaking a little hissy-fit, knee-jerk, reaction to a magazine article to "decisiveness".

Quick reaction to small $hi+ is - to the msm - "decisiveness"...but you don't hear a word out of them about the job situation, Israel, 50 days of oil spill, etc. Where's "Mr. Decisiveness" on the things that matter?

Playing with his [golf] balls.

Yes, good to have Toby Harnden back again, telling the truth about the Obomanoid.

My only reservation is that he goes out of his way to elevate Hillary Clinton, whom he calls one of Obama’s most effective cabinet secretaries at one point and suggests should have won the presidency.

Please. Hillary is very nearly as much of an empty suit as Obama. The only thing she ever did in her life to get her to the top of the heap was to get married to bill clinton.

Obama is a thin-skinned purple-lipped pussy who needs to be impeached, tried for treason and shipped to Gitmo to rot with his muslim buddies.

Hey Telegraph! Listen up and get it straight! Obama was never a law professor. He was hired as a lecturer at the U of Chicago. Big difference in the two positions.

Lot of interesting background here. It sounds like the Southside Rat Gang is falling apart due to infighting and rivalrous egos.

Given his predilection for relying on the Easy button, it’s no surprise that Obama hoped the McChrystal firing would serve as a Reset button. Instead, it has merely highlighted the very weaknesses in his “leadership” that have led to plummeting approval ratings. Rather than serving as a brake on his descent, the firing at best made no difference and at worst has accelerated its pace.

Obama’s advisors—not to mention leaders in Congress—have got to be thinking to themselves “how many more shoes can possibly drop before Election Day?” With the hurricane season ramping up in the Gulf, the Blago trial in full swing, things heating up in the Middle East and the Koreas, and what’s shaping up to be a double-dip recession, it would be astonishing if there weren’t one or more additional catastrophes that will put Obama’s bumbling on full display.

His ratings have declined to the point where people expect him to bungle matters: the only issue is how he will do it. Under these circumstances, it would require something extraordinary (think of Bush’s remarks with the firefighters at the 9/11 site) to turn around public opinion.

I see the author failed to mention that a couple days ago an Islamic paper was claiming the firing a victory in the war. It also proved how weak our government is. Just more of Hussein aiding and abetting the enemy.

With members of his inner circle like Emanuel and David Axelrod likely to return to Chicago after November's mid-term elections, Obama could find the White House a very lonely place next year.

I'd prefer it would be we, who find the White House a "lonely" place - without the glorious leader. The sooner, the better.

If Obama wants to succeed in Afghanistan, he probably needs to fire Holbrooke and Eikenberry,

Yes, please.

I'm watching the leftie MSM clowns saying how the was “brilliant” move by Obama, while they look like they just took a big bite out of a cr@p sandwich.

It's a DISASTER for Obama.

First, the wide-spread contempt the military has for him is exposed for all to see. Secondly, he goes to Bush's guy “General Betrayus” and has to demote him to Afgan commander in order to bail out his sorry ass.

Never has the spectacular incompetence of the lefties toward the war effort been demonstrate so clearly.
