He was for the Afghan war before he was bored by it

Barack Obama talked big talk in 2007-08 about getting out of Iraq and concentrating on Afghanistan. Since his election? Apparently he forgot about both wars -- good for Iraq, not so good for Afghanistan. This weekend Gen. Stanley McChrystal admitted he had only talked to the Bamster once since taking command of Afghanistan in May and this article reports that people seem to be annoyed by Obama's delay on announcing new troops.

Of course, being the ahead of the curve guys we are, we've already chewed the Afghani fat twice this month alone. You can read our thoughts here and here.
