Don't care how many times you meet, just try and get it right.
President Obama meets this afternoon with his national security team for the eighth time to discuss what to do in Afghanistan.
The New York Times reports Obama "is to consider four final options in a meeting with his national security team on Wednesday... The options outline different troop levels, other officials said, but they also assume different goals -- including how much of Afghanistan the troops would seek to control -- and different time frames and expectations for the training of Afghan security forces.
An announcement on the decision is now not expect until Thanksgiving week at the earliest.
First Read concludes Obama "doesn't like his options; it's why he keeps asking for more plans from his military advisers."
Meanwhile, according to a new CNN/Opinion Research survey, 49% of Americans think President Obama is taking too long to decide whether to increase U.S. troop levels in Afghanistan while 50% do not.
