Obama picks up his Nobel Peace Prize in Oslo on December 10th. Want to bet when his Afghan troop decision will come? 

December 11th: Afghan Decision Day?
By Asher Embry

As we await his second Afghan plan in half a year,
“Obama’s just so thoughtful, give him time” is what we hear.
His indecisive weakness is the problem, that’s our fear.
But here’s the actual reason his decision isn’t near:

He always puts Obama first; he’s not surprised us yet.
So we are now quite certain and we’ll gladly place our bet
That “O” won’t make a call on how the Afghan war is manned
Until he’s gone to Oslo and the Nobel’s in his hand.
