WH Blames Cheney for Afghanistan Failure

White House spokesman Robert Gibb said this today in response to Dick Cheney's criticism of Obama's "dithering" on the decision to send more troops to Afghanistan:
“What Vice President Cheney calls dithering, President Obama calls his solemn responsibility to the men and women in uniform,” Gibbs said Thursday. “I think we’ve all seen what happens when somebody doesn’t take that responsibility seriously.”

Perhaps he should check this chart before trying to blame the Bush administration.

… with “dithering” over its strategy for the war in Afghanistan, White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs returned fire with guns blazing.

“What Vice President Cheney calls dithering, President Obama calls his solemn responsibility to the men and women in uniform,” Gibbs said Thursday. “I think we’ve all seen what happens when somebody doesn’t take that responsibility seriously.”
