President Bush with his time in the Texas Air National Guard has considerably more military experience than Obama's none. The way they handled the Generals they put in charge reflects the disparity in experience. In this comparison President Bush comes out smelling much better than Obama.

Sen. Levin is Chairman of the Senate Committee on Armed Services but he has Obama's back not the Armed Services, he has always been a Liberal Idealog...nothing new there. McChrystal is being made into another MacArthur and will be Obama's sacrificial lamb to the Left... Obama has called a meeting of Senate and Congress to solicit additional viewpoints on Afghanistan for his decision...this is Code talk for Obama to later blame everything on the Congress and the Senate in lieu of himself making a decision with his Military experts... Vietnam all over again only with Congressional ignorance prevailing.....imagine..... Nancy Pelosi will be determining Afghanistan Strategy..... I'm surprised Gen Wesly Clark hasn't been picked by Obama to be in charge of something... regards
