Obama Meets Afghan Leader and Discusses Terrorism

Sun, 2008-07-20 16:05 — ABN

This statement does not bode well for an Obama presidency. Sounds to me that he is trying to make a point that had minimal validity maybe four, five years ago, depending on context. Is he pandering to some invisible audience or totally misguided by the need to support the "war on terror" but not the debacle in Iraq? Is he getting bad advice and taking it or did he decide to say that all on his own? ABN
