To summarize
Obama Administration is:
1. Lying about the plan they were given on Afghanistan
2. Dithering on the war
3. Prosecuting American Heros who protected us from Terrorists
4. Making America weaker

General McCrystal versus General Biden
Recently, President Obama has received a request for more troops from his hand-picked commander in Afghanistan, General McCrystal. Although the request was received over a month ago, President Obama has yet to make a decision on the strategy. Sources say that he is weighing his options, and that the leader of the opposition to General McCrystal is Vice Presiden Joe Biden. Let us compare the records of the two men, and see who is most qualified to give the President advice on this very important matter.
General Stanley McCrystal
Commander of Joint Special Operation Command
His group under his command killed Zarqawi, the leader of Al-Qaeda in Iraq
Acknowledged world-wide expert on 'counter-insurgency" strategy, which HE says won't work in Afghanistan but General Biden says will
Commander of our forces in Afghanistan
Fought in Operation Desert Shield, Desert Storm, Operation Enduring Freedom, Operation Iraqi Freedom
Awarded Defense Distinguished Service Medal, Legion of Merit, Bronze Star
Highest ranking military officer in the army to personally engage in direct combat missions
Vice President Joe Biden - Supposedly, Joe Biden in his 35 years of experience in the Senate and on the Senate Foreign Relations committee is an "expert" on Foreign Policy and thus is well qualified to advise the President on his Afghanistan Policy. Despite being a plagiarist and an national joke, let's look at some of Joe's foreign policy decisions over his long Senate career.
- For Nuclear Freeze under Reagan's buildup against the Soviet Union - Judgement of History - WRONG
- Against the first Gulf War - Judgement of History - WRONG
- For the Second Gulf War - Judgement of History - WRONG (he would have gotten it right, but he later said he was wrong for supporting the Iraq War)
- Against the surge in Iraq - Judgement of History - WRONG
- For breaking up Iraq along Ethnic Lines - Judgement of History - WRONG
- Claimed he was shot at in Green Zone in 2007 - Judgement of History - LIE AND WRONG
- In October 2001, right after 9/11, said we should immediately send $200 million dollars to Iran to show them that our intentions are noble - Judgement of History - WRONG (and crazy)
- Claimed in 2007 that Iran was NOT trying to acquire Nuclear Weapons - Judgement of History - WRONG
- Said Saddam Hussein WAS trying to acquire Nuclear Weapons in 1998 - Judgement of History - WRONG (funny how he manages to ALWAYS be wrong)
- Voted to defund Vietnam War in early 70's - Judgement of History - WRONG
- Voted to cripple CIA in 1978 which eventually led to poor intelligence on Iraq AND 9/11 - Judgement of History - WRONG
- Opposed Reagan's anti-communist activities in Nicaraqua, El Salvador and Angola - Judgement of History - WRONG
- Originally opposed and tried to weaken Patriot Act (which ironically President Obama is now trying to keep) - Judgement of History - WRONG
- One of 22 Senators (Obama was another one) who opposed declaring Iranian Revolutionary Guards a Terrorist Organization - Judgement of History - WRONG
Let's hope the President has the good sense to listen to the RIGHT man instead of the one who is, while not engaged in something that is embarrassing himself and his nation, ALWAYS WRONG ON EVERYTHING.
