What policy decision has been implemented and is in place from this Administration?
To my understanding, the only official decision regarding Afghanistan that's been released is a commitment to "finish the job". What "job", and defining "finish", would seem to me to be outstanding in the case of Afghanistan. Hopefully the past six months of study and consultation with other experts and the military will be part of the 'plan' eventually disclosed. But it does beg the question and may be a reason behind some of the exodus; has any definitive and concrete 'plan', positive, and ongoing come from the Executive Branch.
Just this morning, during the pardoning of the Presidential turkey speech, I heard again; "...these are difficult times." and "...things are going to get better". When I asked out loud - what are you doing about it? I got the same answer that perhaps many of these people who've given up are getting - silence, followed by a special interest commercial about how AARP was paid off to back the Health Care Bill.
Can it be that regardless if I personally agree with the agenda that the people leaving feel the chief administrator incompetent or pragmatically unable to accomplish any of his campaign promises? The other fall out from any key person leaving is that while another key position is vacated, it doesn't stop the clock from ticking. As each day passes the "not enough time" rationalization gets weaker and weaker.
