I don't like Steele and won't try to defend his words. However, I recall Obama saying Afghanistan was the correct war and that Bush lost focus on it. Obama escalated the war rather than bring troop homes. Obama's people are setting the strategy. Obama studied the issues in great detail before approving the surge. Obama set a deadline date that is not really a deadline. Obama severely criticized McCain for comments about long-term open ended military commitments, and this helped him win but he is acting no different than McCain would have. US casualties are peaking from month to month - so if Obama doesn't own this war at this point, then you are suggesting he will never have any accountability for the war.

Steele's real problem is that he is kinda weaselly like most politicians in D.C.
