"Either Obama already has made up his mind to back at least the essence of the McChrystal plan or he is being boxed in a corner by his general who acts as if he is the commander in chief with Gates' tacit support. Both interpretations are dismaying.
A president who misleads the American people on a question of war and peace is continuing his predecessor's practice of deception that brought us to ruin in Iraq -- a practice that Obama swore oaths to reverse. The alternative is just as harrowing: the Pentagon is preempting presidential prerogatives. Sad to say, neither should be a complete surprise given the White House's record of having abandoned its much ballyhooed dedication to transparency while letting itself be pushed around by everyone from Goldman Sachs to Max Baucus to Bibi Netanyahu."
