Didn't download the video quick enough
Oops, I violated my own rule of not downloading videos that I wasnt to use in a post, and sure enough-gone. Guess Team Obama didn't like the reporting-"violations of terms of service".It's Good to be King, if just for a while....
AP: Obama Rejects All Military Options for Afghanistan Given
November 12, 2009 at 12:36 am - MSNBC
Dateline: Washington DCAP: President Barack Obama does not plan to accept any of the Afghanistan war options presented by his national security team, pushing instead for revisions to clarify how and when U.S. troops would turn over responsibility to the Afghan government, a senior administration official said Wednesday.
Update: found the video on xanga

Well, darn! Can't believe they would pull the Messiah not being exactly perfect.
It really pisses me off these videos get scrubbed from the internet
He is so arrogant...not listening to anyone else about what to do in Afghanistan.
Did you see the video of the mother of a Marine killed in Afghanistan who implored Obama to make a decision; get in or out, do something.
I agree with her if we are not going to do what is necessary to win the war then get out and get out now.
Without a clear plan of what their objective is, the troops will have only a vague idea as to what they are suppose to be doing and that has to make them less effective .
@valis10 - no I didnt. I am sort of in your ball park. I have some working alternatives to our plan that I think make sense. Our thinking out the the box not considering the history and peoples of afghanistan is embarrassing and dangerous.
@TheSunnyC - @firetyger - I got a hat tip from a certain freedom fighter of where a copy of the video existed on xanga so included it.
@jeremiahstears - I agree that we need to quit acting in indecision and proceed with purpose and a clear mission. I just don't see the CIC being that person with clear vision. He operates out of alinsky mode tearing things down and whining about the situation he inherited being so tough. If it was too tough than he should not have said he was up for the job and understood it when he clearly has not understood the magnitude of it. My major criticsm of him in the campaign was his judgement and inexperience. What has played out ??? As I cited there was nothing in his past to give a indication that he was competent to acomplish what he said he would in the future and especially when his previous action contradicted what he said he would do moving forward...And under tha motif he is unfit to lead in the complex situation in Afghanistan. Four options , all increasing troops. Sounds like he needs some out of the boxers as advisors as well.
Does this mean Obama just now thought that maybe there should be a plan associated with Afghanistan instead of just feeding troops into a meat grinder with their hands tied?
@longtimelurker - someone just told Obama the afghan people don't think he is hip and like Dick Cheney better so he is washing his ego, I mean hands, of them.
Barack Hussein Obama = horrible leader. Period.
@longtimelurker - THREE DIFFERENT PLANS! At least 11 months to draft one of his own!
How's the weather out there in Denial?
@SwordAndSacrifice - say it isn't so Rob! what was the name of that song? Welcome to my nightmare. This is the live version.
