When somebody like Max Boot writes an op-ed supporting Obama, my concerns with Obama turn to despair

not good...

President Obama and his aides continue to impress with their handling of Afghanistan. Not only have they approved a major troop increase and a de facto commitment to nation-building, but now they have shifted personnel to make the most effective use of the added resources and turn around a failing war effort.

max boot is right up there with bill kristol, charles krauthammer, michael smerconish, and karl rove in being a neocon to the bone... i've been less than thrilled with the obama administration so far, but to see one of these guys jumping on board is more than deeply troubling...

The WaPo's crusade to destroy Obama continues apace

the headline of the daily wapo opinion email...

Today's Opinions: Obama's Flaws and Gaffes

the two lead items...

Michael Gerson
A Phenom With Flaws
Is Barack Obama a weak candidate or a strong one? Yes.

Charles Krauthammer
Obama's Growing Gaffe
How a campaign misstep became a foreign policy cornerstone.

all of this is merely prelude to hauling out the big guns... we ain't seen nothing like the barrage of heavy character assassination artillery that will be unleashed in the coming months as obama moves into the thick of the full-blown presidential campaign and the weeks draw down to the party conventions...
