War Time President

President Obama does not have the stomach to be a War President.  Grant it, its always better if you do not have to be at war, but this is  part of the job.  He seems hesitate to make a decision with General McChrystal's request for more troops.
Obama loves domestic issues.  Health Care, Stimulus package, running off to rallies,  Pittsburgh, Minneapolis, NYC Wall Street, appearing on five Sunday  news programs, condemning banks and Wall Street  greed.  But political greed and ambition is ok.  Just plain, no bones about it, Overexposed.  The more the better. He is just  so comfortable being in the lights with the cameras rolling.
Here are two domestic issues that are in trouble.    Unemployment  is 9.8 percent today and Heath Care bill.
You would think with all his czars, 40 some lawyers, dozens of economists and experts, his white house staff, all the help he gets  from Vice President Biden (ya right),  he would be making some head way with all these problems.  But he is not. Has he completed one thing that he has started?  He has not.
Too many people  blame the Republicans for all of Obama's  problems.  They are blamed and said to be  racists. Republicans are not racists. 
Republicans do not dislike BO.  But they do dislike what he says and what he stands for.  His priorities seem misaligned,  and at times there is a lack of clarity and distortions have been noted. No one is asking for perfection, even though many in Washington think they are perfect.  It comes down to faith and trust.
Its a two way street Mr. President.
