Note my remarks to Steve...They (Obama et al) put him out there.
Also, Bush had an former area commander (Powell), "Rummy" and Cheney (and his dad) to rely on and listen to during those first few years of response in Afghanistan and Iraq. I'm glad they didn't all agree...at least they knew what they were talking about. Many generals agreed with Bush...when you allow folks to disagree, the decision-maker is always going to have some folks who think his decision is wrong.
Obama has Oprah.
