Bill Kristol poses the question in The Weekly Standard. Apparently Obama is getting the shakes about a military request to ramp up troop numbers in Afghanistan. Will he or won't he do what is necessary to prevail in a war that even he has said is vital to U.S. interests? The Left is already starting to beat the drum more loudly to cut and run. These were the same folks who said that the troop surge in Iraq wouldn't work and would result in a blood bath for American troops. Well, we all know how that turned out. When is the American public going to realize that these folks stink as military and foreign policy strategists and whose acumen stops at one shell-shocked incantation: "Vietnam! Booga booga!" Our military has done the job and done it well in 1991, 2002-2003, and currently all over the world. Yes, war is hard and has its ups and downs, but the bad guys remain after us and we had better get used to doing what is necessary to take them out or we will be having a series of 9/11-type memorial events. Et tu Obama?
