Sarah Palin Slams Obama: "We Head Into Christmas Wishing For Leadership in Washington"

“His plan comes up short. There’s not enough troops, not enough resources and not enough urgency. What President Bush and Senator McCain don’t understand is that the central front in the War on Terror is not in Iraq and never was. The central front is in Afghanistan and Pakistan where the terrorists who hit us on 9-11 are still plotting attacks seven years later.”

Obama also said “we can’t wait” on sending more troops a year ago.
But, that was last year before the election.
Now President Obama is only focusing on an exit strategy in Afghanistan. His democratic colleagues are already talking about surrender.

Today Sarah Palin urged the dithering Commander in Chief to focus on victory in Afghanistan.
From Sarah Palin’s Facebook page:

We head into the Christmas season wishing for leadership in Washington that reflects our commitment to the values and ideals that have built the freest and most prosperous and generous nation on earth.

Heading into December and Tuesday’s announcement of our nation’s strategy in Afghanistan, I ask the President to reassure us that the administration is in this War on Terror to win.

And I’ll pass along the following from Harold B. Estes, a 95-year-old member of the Greatest Generation: “I realize you never served in the military and never had to defend your country with your life, but you’re the Commander-in-Chief now, son. Do your job. When your battle-hardened field General asks you for 40,000 more troops to complete the mission, give them to him. But if you’re not in this fight to win, then get out.”

Thank you, Mr. President. Please tell us on Tuesday that America is in it to win.

– Sarah Palin
