    Dick Cheney's most recent kvetch? Obama was "dithering" on Afghanistan. Dithering? Pray tell, do my ears deceive me? Barack Obama was "dithering" on whether or not to send an additional thirty-five thousand kids into harms way? He dithered???

    Oh! Dastardly Dick! Oh! Vile, deceitful Dickie! If thou had thus dithered, might not thy fellow countrymen and women have awaken this morn to a more content and peaceable homeland? Oh, vile and blundering Dick! Naughty Dick! Thou contemptible rascal!

    If you've ever read my blog, it's no secret that it is my profound belief that Obama is committing a monumental mistake by escalating the war in Afghanistan. But let's give the guy a tip of the hat, okay? At least he had the good sense to think long and hard about what he felt he needed to do - unlike the previous administration that dove head-first and smiling into this stupid, fucking quagmire. In spite of my criticism, I believe (I hope) that Barack Obama is essentially a decent guy who means well. As stated previously, it is way too early to give an etched-in-stone assessment of this administration. We need to see where Election Day 2013 finds us. We shall see what we shall see.

    At the moment it would seem that Dick Cheney and his disgusting daughter Liz are fast becoming Number One the extreme right's nitwit Parade. The darling girl is now promoting a movement ( and, PUH-LEEZ, I hope this is true) that would make dear old dad the GOP nominee in 2012. This can't possibly be, can it? Optimist though I may be, my luck has never gotten this good! Could this merely be a dream from which I am yet to awake? Pinch me, please.

    "At least he had the good sense to think long and hard about what he felt he needed to do.."

    You are absolutely wrong. To "dither" in the middle of a war is asinine, because lives are on the line. You either accept defeat and bring all the boys home as soon as possible, or you listen to your generals recommendations and what they say is needed to come closer to victory. There is no middle ground for dithering when a war is already taking place, when our soldiers are on the front line. Of course before waging a war it is key to make sure that all other viable options have been exhausted. But once a war has begun, "dithering" is a sign of incompetence and the inability to lead.

    I agree that Obama is "a decent guy who means well." But as everyone knows, the path to hell is paved with good intentions.

    I also think that George W. Bush was a "decent guy" who meant well.
