Will President Obama throw in the towel in Afganistan and accept defeat so to keep the government takeover of health care on schedule?
Afganistan was where Obama said we had to be. Iraq was wrong, Afganistan was right.
The generals want more solidiers, the leftists in Congress won't like that, they want the government control of the health care industry.
Good to see Bob Woodward still doing his job, others who idolize him, have been lacking in their job.

The Afghan war is losing public support big time. It behooves the White House to trial ballon McChrystal's report and see what the reaction is.
It's very easy to kick Arabs around a flat desert with nothing but scrub brush and sand dunes for cover. A wilderness of caves and mountains is quite a different thing. Generals said we could win Vietnam too. Crazy Westmoreland went to his grave believing we won.
What will happen if he gives General McCrystal the troops he is looking for? What will the left think? What happens when McCrystal quits because he isn't given the troops? How about all the Senators and Representatives who have to run for election in 2010 that were on tape saying Afganistan was the "good war"?
If we back out, doesn't it empower all the radical Muslims accross the world? How about the radical Muslims in Denver and NYC that we just found?
Seeing we just stabbed Poland in the back last week, on the anniversary of Poland getting invaded by the Soviet Union, does Obama really know what he's doing?
It looks like Obamacare is going to please no one, is he trying to appease his leftist base with losing the war in Afganistan?
Obama is showing his inexperience. But then, that probably makes me a racist, seeing thats the only comback the left has these days.
I bet there is some hand wringing in the White House and Pentagon today! Who is the "Deep Throat" that is leaking the information!
Give appeasement a chance?
