Obama Afghanistan Plan: Think, Talk (Open Thread)

Apparently Obama’s Afghanistan plan is very simple: Do nothing at all! Yahoo news reports:

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.

That push follows strong reservations about a possible troop buildup expressed by the U.S. ambassador in Afghanistan, Karl Eikenberry, according to a second top administration official.

In other words, he’s voting present again. It seems that Obama’s Afghanistan plan is to do nothing at all. President Obama has now rejected all possible military plans submitted to him by his national security advisers and the Pentagon. Essentially Obama has rejected the advice given to him by the entire military chain of command and says he wants more options. Obama thinks that having a stable Afghani government and training Afghan troops to do the work is the solution, and I agree. However, you cannot get either of those things with out first beating down the insurgency and bringing some degree of order to the chaos that is Afghanistan.

Muntadhar al-Zeidi Freed: Bush Shoe Thrower in Iraq (Open Talk)

Muntadhar al-Zeidi freed early? That is the word coming out of Iraq. He is the George Bush shoe thrower who posed as a journalist at an Iraqi press conference in 2008. You all remember, sure you do. Our nimble president deftly ducked the bullet while Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki of Iraq looked aghast and liberals everywhere cheered the insult to their country. See the famous shoe throwing video below.

The physical laws of the universe state that every action results in an opposite and equal reaction, or something like that if I am remembers physics studies. And so the Bush shoe thrower received a long, long prison sentence in a harsh Iraq jail where nobody complains about water-boarding or wearing panties on their heads. They have other more worthwhile concerns when the punishment fits the crime.
