Very Interesting – La Barbie on Camera

You have a cell phone and millions of dollars, and only a few minutes to be able to save yourself. Call corrupt politicians to back the soliders down, call allies to bring armed men?

While he enjoys this victory, which he did nothing to reverse during his term as he had previously promised (pulling out of Iraq, closing Guantanamo, etc) and even kept Bush’s capable Defense Minister Gates, he is also suffering continuous defeats in his war of choice that he so eagerly campaigned for and has now expanded in Afghanistan. There, things are going from bad to worse very quickly, and I don’t know if Obama has the wherewithal, guts, perseverence and capacity to see it through to victory.
