obama is incapable of making decisions when they actually need to be made
I cannot say what I really think, but then I couldn't say what I really thought of bush either
What are your qualifications to determine when a military decision "actually needs to be made?"

To hold the same views at forty as we held at twenty is to have been stupefied for a score of years and to take rank, not as a prophet, but as an unteachable brat, well birched and none the wiser.

The main doctrine of a fanatic's creed is that his enemies are enemies of God.

We've all been conditioned to think of love as the heart-pounding,
breathless passion of the young -- not the complex feelings shared by two
time-ravaged people who spend afternoons holding hands, as a defense against
loneliness, disease and death.

Courage is the price that life exacts for granting peace. The soul that knows it not, knows no release from little things; Knows not the livid loneliness of fear, nor mountain hights where bitter joy can hear the sound of wings. How can life grant us boon of living, compensate for dull gray ugliness and pregnant hate unless we dare the soul's dominion? Each time we make a choice, we pay with courage to behold restless day, and count it fair.

You are mistaken. That was the real GW Bush posing with the soldier.
