Do you feel the leaked information from a global warming alarmist organization is meaningful?



The White House says President Barack Obama has narrowed down his decision for an Afghanistan strategy to four options.

Press Secretary Robert Gibbs says the president will discuss those options with his national security team on Wednesday. Gibbs did not provide any details about the options, and says the president's decision on troop deployments is still weeks away.

Gen. Stanley McChrystal _ the top U.S. commander in Afghanistan _ has told the president that the U.S. mission there is headed for failure unless the president sends an additional 40,000 troops. Sources tell The Associated Press that the president will add tens of thousands more forces, though probably not quite the 40,000 McChystal is seeking.

Come on, give the President a break. After all he is just a college professor with not very good oratory skills.
I will make a prediction because this is how petty the President is. He will adopt the Vietnam strategy. Instead of fighting a war it will be a big police action.
