The comments that Mr. Colin Powell made to President Obama, were right on the mark. President Obama, I too say take your sweet time in making a big decision, like this. Commit yourself to not work the comments of the news for two weeks, and see how the decision about what to do, comes to you,without interference. May God Be With You Always, in Any Decisions you make For yourself, and This Country. Remember Everyone Has A Opinion, But Your Decision Matters The Most.
Good Advice to heed. The haters are going to complainone way or the othr and if the President moves to quickly and the outcome is worse, then they will be louder than ever.
Pray Mr. President, let God direct your decisions!
I am ashamed that apparently there are so many ignorant, low brow bamas still floating around in 2009. President Obama should take his time, he has to come up with an defense and exit strategy in Afghanistan. There is plenty of troops over their and this was a Nato effort so UK, France, and Canada are still there as well... Be informed or be the voice of dumb.
...riiight...Let me get this straight...everybody NOT over in the line of fire in the Middle East actually thinks it takes weeks and weeks and weeks to ponder and consider the best course of action. As a black man, I am ashamed of the responses of some of us including Colin Powell. The men and women in harms way deserve to be supported with backup NOW or removed from that theatre of war..not left twisting in the wind.
I never saw WAR as a success, but I do agree with Mr. Powell. Obama should take the time and research what is need for this WAR. Do not listen to the White House, listen to the Generals of the Military and the past Military Officals. They are only people who have experience with these difficult WARs in the Middle East.
