Cut and Walk From Afghanistan?

By Tony Blankley

"The gist of Gen. Stanley McChrystal's analysis that presumably will be presented to President Barack Obama is: If 1) you and Congress fully resource the effort (troops, materiel and civilian aid) and 2) if we get much better at coordinating all our assets — Defense and State departments, the U.S. Agency for International Development, intelligence, contractors, NATO and others — then 3) there is a better than even chance of success in Afghanistan, which will take 4) between five and seven more years. Note that the president is not likely to be told that the Pentagon can "predict" success — only that it would be more likely than not to succeed."

The President as Pitchman: It Isn't Pretty

By Bradley Blakeman

"President Obama demeans the office of the presidency by traveling to Denmark, where he will reduce himself to the role of Billy Mays pitchman in the U.S. bid to win the 2016 Olympic games for Chicago.

The greatest asset a president of the United States has is his credibility and his time. I know because I had the privilege of being the "gate keeper" for President George W. Bush.

I was Deputy Assistant to the President for Appointments and Scheduling, Vetting and Research. I was responsible for Mr. Bush's time management and planning. As such, I was acutely aware of how valuable and important the time of the president of the United States is."

Iran: Bad Options and Unpreparedness

By Arnold Ahlert

"One of the fundamental questions that arises in politics is all about timing: what did someone know and when did they know it? According to news reports released last week, the "revelation" regarding a second nuclear facility constructed by Iranians in the holy city of Qom was anything but. Many sources say Western nations have know about the facility for "months." Others say say the United States has known about it for over a year. Still others say Western intelligence sources were aware of it as soon as Iran began construction back in 2006."

A Pragmatic Look at Obama's Pragmatism

By Jonah Goldberg

"When John McCain said we could just 'muddle through' in Afghanistan, I argued for more resources and more troops to finish the fight against the terrorists who actually attacked us on 9/11, and made clear that we must take out Osama bin Laden and his lieutenants if we have them in our sights," Barack Obama thundered as he accepted the Democratic nomination for president in Denver last year. "John McCain likes to say that he'll follow bin Laden to the gates of Hell. But he won't even go to the cave where he lives."
