Enduring America Special: If It's Sunday, It Must Be Mr Obama's War

obama-face-the-nationSunday morning is special in US politics. It's the time when Administrations can sell their policies on political talk shows (and, in due course, when opponents can have a shot at the President and his advisors).

Yesterday the Obama Administration put on a full-court press for its Pakistan-Afghanistan strategy. The President went on Face the Nation on CBS --- we've got the video and transcript. We also have the full text for General David Petraeus and US special envoy Richard Holbrooke with CNN and Secretary of Defense Robert Gates with Fox News. And, as a global economy bonus, there is today's Obama interview with the Financial Times.

We'll offer a full analysis later, but for now have a look at how Mr Obama's War is being laid out for the US public.
