re: #259 cliffster

So I really don’t get the whole, “OH MY GOD, HE TOOK 3 MONTHS” bit. But seriously, what was he thinking about for 3 months? He wasn’t pondering all those decades of military wisdom he’s collected in his time at.. law school, and.. in the streets of Chicago. With absolutely zero qualification to lead the military, what does he deliberate about?

As I said before, it’s more than just rubber stamping one generals request. The decision involved a overall strategy for the war, not just blindly adding more blood and money without a well thought out plan.
I see no problem with his asking for input from the best and brightest on how to proceed.
