The Decider.....Of The World

President Bush seems to think that since he is the 'Decider' he can demand other countries to commit troops to Afghanistan. Sheesh, yeah right! The guy has lost his mind in addition to losing any claim to moral authority. We had Osama on the run back in 2002 and now he is....well who knows where he is. Then Bush took our troops out of there and put them in Iraq, where we have failed miserably.

From Ireland On-line:

US President George Bush today criticised Nato nations that have hesitated to send additional troops to Afghanistan or allow their soldiers already there to fight in the violent south and under other dangerous circumstances.

Speaking at the American Enterprise Institute, a think-tank, he said: “When our commanders on the ground say to our respective countries ’We need additional help,’ our Nato countries must provide it. ”As well, allies must lift restrictions on the forces they do provide so Nato commanders have the flexibility they need to defeat the enemy wherever the enemy may make its stand."

There is no way in hell that anyone is going to listen to this mad man. Many countries have pulled their troops out of Iraq and have no desire to place more of their men and women in harm's way for President Bush's 'war on terror.' It just isn't going to happen, no way, no how.
