Obama's Afghan Speech bumps "A Charlie Brown Christmas"
Damn Kenyan..
President Barack Obama .
..
... is slated to deliver a prime-time address on Tuesday night in which he'll lay out his plans for the American war in Afghanistan.
The address before the United States Military Academy at West Point on Tuesday night will not only be used to announce the immediate order to deploy roughly 30,000 more troops, but the administration will also use the occasion to convey how it intends to turn the fight over to the Kabul government, the New York Times reported.
But the administration may also face an unforeseen enemy as it lays out its long-awaited plans. And they are loud and they are legion: We're talking about preschoolers and their parents.
That's because ABC-TV was scheduled to present its annual screening of "A Charlie Brown Christmas" at 8 p.m. tomorrow night. And we don't know about you, but that show is pretty sacrosanct around our house and not to be trifled with lightly.
A call to the White House may be in order here. We hear it's pretty easy to get through these days ...

Maybe Obama would reconsider if it was Charlie Black instead of Brown.

Does this guy ever stay home? I heard a story yesterday that the Secret Service is tremendously stretched and over worked and a large part of it comes from the O's constant traveling.
