President Obama finally has won the support of House Speaker John Boehner. It's just turned out to come on the wrong issue, it seems. Although the Ohio Republican reportedly supports the plan Obama announced Wednesday night to withdraw 10,000 U.S. troops from Afghanistan, with an additional 33,000 by next summer, many in the president's own party do not.
I mean, from my personal perspective, I think it's especially the Libya mission that is very doubtful. It still has no approval of congress. Well, obviously the Republicans got used to it under Bush. But that doesn't make it any more legal. Well, to shorten the entire idea, the Afghan surge was a donation to the Republicans, as well as the Libya mission. Now, Obama is backpedalling from the Afghan mission. As I said before, I would correct the Libya mission fírst, id est getting congress approval. Then again, who cares at all about this? THe only thing that will happen, is, if you cut it dramatically, McCain will fill the airwaves and blurb something about endangerment of national security, what he is already doing anyway. So, from a more danger-regarding point of view, there simply is no danger if you do nothing, at least from the Republican side. So, do nothing. Despite, these missions waste money. But I think I stopped thinking about waste of money somewhen in 2004 when Bush was suddenly planning for Iraq forever.
