Woodward

Goddamn, this guy is a machine. He already has a book out on Obama at War.

And Bob's got the goods: Obama, who comes across as deeply skeptical about the war and overwhelmingly concerned with finding an "exit strategy" rather than winning, personally dictated a six-page "terms sheet" outlining the conditions under which he was sending the troops...


As if this wasn't obvious to the casual observer of Obama. But Woodward has documentation. Sending troops off to die for a cause he is skeptical about...well...this is what we get for electing career politicians to office - we get politicians and not statesmen. It could be said Obama surged in Afghanistan to create political cover for himself and the Democrats to prove they aren't soft on terror. Jeez louise.
