The Telegraph of London is !@#$!%@

On October 14th, 2009, the Telegraph of London published the following:

United States to send 'up to 45,000 more troops to Afghanistan'

The US is expected to announce a significant surge of up to 45,000 extra troops for Afghanistan after Gordon Brown said that 500 more British troops would be sent to the country.

You might have noticed that didn't happen.

Now, the Telegraph follows up with this headline:

Barack Obama's Afghan troop decision delay provokes anger at Pentagon

President Barack Obama's decision to postpone responding to the military request for 40,000 more troops in Afghanistan the after next month's run-off election is heightening tensions between the White House and Pentagon.

Who's upset, exactly? Could it be the Telegraph's source who seems hell bent to leather to push a President who won't be pushed???

Seems to me its a Conservative Newspaper with an axe to grind, who might be made that their earlier bullshit prediction didn't come up aces.
