Here's another area where BHO is going to have issues. What's he to say about Afghanistan? That we need a surge? Like the one that worked in Iraq? The one he wrongly opposed? Fool. The only thing he can say that makes sense is that McCain was right on Iraq, and we need to do the same thing in Afghanistan. So, he'll just have to not make sense.

And here's an article on exactly how BHO is dealing with the success of the strategy he opposed. Hint: it's with "change."
