Enjoy Your Thanksgiving; No Afghanistan Strategy Rollout Until After the Holiday
Thursday, November 19, 2009 at 2:31 pm
Sometimes I think President Obama is making policy just to be easy on national-security reporters. Josh Rogin reports:
The Obama administration won’t announce its new comprehensive strategy for Afghanistan and Pakistan until after Thanksgiving, a White House official confirms to The Cable, and observers and experts close to the discussions see it as the White House’s attempt to stage a full and controlled rollout over the week beginning November 30.
Whatever he says, expect positive coverage from a rested press.
