Obama Is Turning His Back On US Soldiers in Afghanistan

General Stanley McChrystal wants up to 40,000 more troops as soon as possible. This is Obama's own choice for commanding officer on the ground in Afghanistan. So what's the problem? Obama is spineless. He won't make a decision because he doesn't want to upset anyone on either side. He was given four different plans by four different groups for strategies ranging from sending a few troops to sending lots of troops. They all had provisions for defense against the insurgents while at the same time training Afghan. Security forces. All I might add part of General McChrystal's plan.

So what is the bottom line here? It is that it's time to piss or get off the pot! Have you heard that expression before? In other words, if he will not take action to reinforce the men and women doing the work that he was never prepared to do than he should bring them home. As I've said before Obama has no experience in the needs or ways of the military. If he wants this war fought he should get out of the way of the soldiers that show more courage and resolve in day than Obama has shown in his entire lifetime. This man (if you can call him that) is putting American lives in unnecessary peril while sitting in a comfy chair somewhere ignoring the pleas of those who need help.

Let's put it in perspective. If a man goes in to a public place and starts shooting a gun, even if he is not aiming at anyone, he is guilty of reckless endangerment. If one of those rounds hits someone and kills him or her, even accidentally, he is guilty of manslaughter. What is the difference between this and letting soldiers die because they don't have the reinforcements they need. If he won't give the military the resources they need he should give up and surrender the position and bring our troops home. If he continues to go against the advice of the men and women trained in these situations and won't act to keep Americans safe, then he is breaking the law and should be impeached and put on trial for the lives of every soldier that loses his life due to his neglect. Mr. Obama is a weak willed and cowardly president and our country deserves better.
