On at least one count, I may have been mistaken and there may be some hope for our new President yet. The following is copied from part of an article on Fox News:
"Obama Promises to Dismantle, Defeat al-Qaida and Taliban
Friday, March 27, 2009 9:51 AM
President Barack Obama on Friday ordered 4,000 more military troops into Afghanistan, vowing to "disrupt, dismantle and defeat" the Taliban and al-Qaida.
In a war that still has no end in sight, Obama said the fresh infusion of U.S. forces is designed to bolster the Afghan army and turn up the heat on terrorists that he said are plotting new attacks against Americans. The plan takes aim at terrorist havens in Pakistan and challenges the government there and in Afghanistan to show more results."
I hope he follows through,
Grumpy
