On August 30, Gen. Stanley McChrystal sent Defense Secretary Robert Gates a war assessment in which he said more U.S. troops--and a new U.S. strategy--are needed if the U.S. is to defeat the insurgents in Afghanistan.

Since that Aug. 30, 2009 date, a total of 43 soldiers have died as of October 1st 2009. On Sunday, Sept 27th 2009 Gen. McChrystal told 60 Minutes that he has talked to Obama only once in the past 70 days. At a briefing on Tuesday, White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs noted that President Obama receives a memo every week from General McChrystal.

On Wednesday, President Obama was meeting with McChrystal and other military officials in a video conference to discuss future plans for Afghanistan. The White House said President Obamas national security team will also attend the video conference.

But first, Obama welcomes golfing great Arnold Palmer to the Oval Office, the Associated Press reported on Wednesday. Palmer is in town to receive the Congressional Gold Medal.
