For those conservatives who waxed rhapsodic over President Obama's Oslo speech last week--take a pill. One hawkish oration (delivered by a we are the world, community organizer in chief) does not mean the man is now Winston Churchill.
Lest we forget, Obama had to be dragged (against his leftist ideological will) kicking and screaming like a bit** just to agree to a surge in Afghanistan. A surge, mind you--that top military commanders explicitly and urgently stated was necessary in order to be victorious.
At this great crucible in our nation's history, empty bravado is a dangerous endeavor. If Obama truly desires to be a successful wartime president he must (without telegraphing his punches to the enemy) not only score a decisive win in Afghanistan--but also (unilaterally, if need be) prevent the Islamic Republic of Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons.
Wartime president or big time wuss?
