I'm getting a little sick of Obama's arm chair quarterback style he is taking about his ability to make decisions. I know that there isn't much else he can do except talk about decisions that were made and why they might have turned out to be bad ones, or that he doesn't agree with the outcome of some things and offer suggestions as to what he would have thought might have been a better decision with a better outcome.
But to just blatantly try to take the position that he knew every right decision that should have been made all along and discount all of the other factors seems a bit too know-it-all for me.
He can't even admit that he was wrong about sending in more troops for the surge. He has admitted it has worked, but refuses to admit that he was wrong when he voted against it.
I still think that he is a very eloquent speaker and has an uncanny ability to step into any question and not avoid the answer, but at the same time word his response so that he doesn't make any mistakes. He doesn't do the normal politican response of totally side-stepping any question that they either don't know the answer or don't want to answer it.
