I have no problem with his taking his time to make a decision on Afghanistan. Too bad we did not take time to make the right decisions about going into Iraq ("Bring 'em on") and the panicked bail out last September (Both parties responsible) because some Wall Street firms were "too big to fail." Unfortunately IMHO there is no good choice in Afghanistan. We can't stay forever and "nation-build," nor can we leave. This will be a defining moment for this administration and to say he is "dithering," as one former official put it, is nonsense.
