I was wondering how many father’s Obama has taken away from children while he has been “dithering” over decisions to add troops in Afghanistan?

Circular argument. Big time. There are no guarantees any decision made by Obama on Afghanistan would have affected anything that has happened to this point.

And before you get your dander up, yes he's completely doing our military members in Afghanistan and the AOR in general a disservice by stalling on this issue.

Using that logic, no action should ever be taken on any issue given there are no guarantees of a specific or desired outcome.

But let's look at guarantees.

Take a person like Obama who has never served in the military, who has never studied any part of the military, its history, tactics or even basic military theory.

Obama has no understanding of Just War Theory, what constitutes a war crime or even the basic structure of the various branches of the military he unfortunately is Commander and Chief of. Combine that with Obama's lack of any type of executive or organizational experience and a demonstrated lack of respect for our troops and there is one assured guarantee.

I guarantee Obama will make the wrong decision 100% of the time if he does not listen to those who have spent their lives serving this nation, who have been and are under fire.

I know which guarantee I'd rather see our troops having the choice of.
