It's almost surreal - I just saw a car with an Obama '08 bumpersticker and right next to it was
a bumpersticker that said WAR IS NOT THE ANSWER.

Wonder what's going thru that person's head today...

And I wouldn't presume to make that decision for them.

3. And this is while Goo-Gone stock is climbing through the roof today
Stores can't keep it in stock. If I didn't know better, Id think Obama was in bed with the Goo-Gone shareholders

6. It would be interesting to know what he is thinking - personally -
I take comfort in knowing that Obama took alot of time, listened to alot of different opinions from alot of different people before he came to this decision. And for that reason, I'm going to trust him on this one. Had he agreed to immediately giving McCrystal everything he wanted, I might feel different. Obama did not jump into this decision, and he must have his reasons.

8. Did Obama start a war?
I had no idea - tell me where he started this conflict - I must not have been paying attention!

12. Not me
:)

I was just being snarky - I don't think Obama would have started this war so I have to give him some slack when it comes to dealing with this catastrophe he was handed.

Bush left us with numerous humongous messes that Obama has to clean up.
