The Germans are awaiting leadership out of Obama concerning Afghanistan.
But why should countries like Germany and France believe the verbose promises of a president who is not even sending a clear message at home, even though he has a majority in both houses of Congress?
There is no doubt that hardly a day passes in Europe without criticism of US policy. This has become a trans-Atlantic ritual. But despite this ritual, Europeans are still looking for one thing from the White House: leadership.
We’re waiting, Mr. President.
I don’t care what they want, but thought I’d include the “changing attitudes” overseas here since it was such a big damn deal during the election.
