I usually agree with her on policy but her political radar is way off base. And I've had it up to my eyeballs with the gloom and doomers lately.

For cryin' out loud, McCain would have kept them there forever. Obama extended his time table by 3 months and in the process he probably made the generals feel like they have some input, so they're happy now. And that just might pay off on some other things in the long run.
