My Comment: What would President Bush do with the present situation in Afghanistan if he was still President?
I am surprised that no one has asked this question yet .... I guess no one cares. But this question has been running through my mind for the past few days, and I think that it is valid because I am sure that President Bush must have some insights on this issue. As a war President for almost seven and a half years, his experiences and what he learned is probably unmatched by anyone in the current administration and/or any other past administration.
Would he agree with his commanders and give them what they want? Would he pursue a different route with Afghanistan's neighbors? Would he cut and run .... or would he implement a surge that would equal Iraq's? As I said .... I am sure that he has many insights and ideas .... but I am also sure that no one is going to ask him.
President Bush will be speaking at the Montreal Board of Trade on October 22. I already bought my ticket, and if given the chance I will ask him that question. "In regards to Afghanistan ..... what would he do if he was still President".
