Lyndon Baines Obama

LBJ famously couldn't decide whether to win or get out of the Vietnam war, eventually getting us into a no win situation.  This seems to be the single thing that BHO learned from him.  Now we are repeating the same errors in Afghanistan and Libya.  Get in and win or get out Mr. President.  By failing to decide, President Obama appears to be both a coward and a fool.  From contentions.


President Obama is said to be angry about this attempt to undercut his commander-in-chief authority–as well he should be, although he also brought this upon himself in part by failing to ask Congress for authorization for the Libyan war effort. Moreover, he is costing himself support among many conservative Republicans by failing to prosecute the war against Qaddafi more vigorously. Now he is making the same mistake in Afghanistan, where once again Obama is showing himself to be fatally ambivalent about a war with which he is closely identified.
