Obama Surge in Afghanistan

BBC News: Reports that President Obama is sending seventeen thousand troops to Afghanistan. This is a mistake, its a half way house, its not as much as the Army Brass wanted but enough to show that the campaign speeches of the 08 Campaign had a point. I will guarantee that the President will have to send more troops in to Afghanistan, he will need to support the Government in Kabul, Afghanistan, he will need to take the fight to the terrorists on the border between Afghanistan and Pakistan, he might need to secure the nuclear weapons of Pakistan should the Government of Pakistan fall and the terrorists take over the country. Afghanistan has become Obama's War. Lets recall what destroyed the Great Society of LBJ, it was Vietnam.
