That didn't take long

In my first post I wrote:

"TB will now claim Obama is doing exactly the same thing as Bush. "

No. He has added tens of thousands of soldiers and thousands of civilians to the effort, has ratcheted up diplomatic efforts and pressure on AfPak in a BIG way, and boosted military and non military financial aid. And he has determined a long term strategy to WIN and not just keep drifting and fighting forever. Part of that strategy is flexibility to adapt and not just stick with the same plans if they are not producing results in a reasonable time.

I know you support these efforts, I just wish you had the intellectual honesty to acknowledge this is a big difference from the much smaller scale efforts Bush applied here.
