At least not until we topple the Karzai government so that we can have a “credible” Afghan partner. Nothing says “stability” like overthrowing your last “partner”.
Success in Afghanistan will not be defined by military objectives, Kerry said. “There is no military success ultimately to Afghanistan.”
Emanuel told CNN the U.S. effort requires getting answers to a “set of questions that have to have answers, that have never been asked.”
Obama “will not be rushed to making a decision without asking firm questions and challenging the assumptions,” he said.
Take your time, Miss. We understand a delicate lady like President Obama reserves the right to change her mind. It’s not like you had two years of running for President to think of how to handle this question or 9 months in the Office, give or take a week or two lobbying for the Olympics, date nights or many vacations to hash out these “distractions” from the full-scale offensive in favor of socialized medicine.
9 months in and Bush was already dealing with 9/11. By all means, take your time.
Does this war make my ass look fat? Will Firedoglake and hullabaloo write nasty blog posts about my Change deficit?
