Hope and Change?

Now democrates = big national debt and spending
etc.

WASHINGTON — CODEPINK Women for Peace is heartbroken and discouraged by President Obama’s decision to deploy an additional 17,000 troops to Afghanistan, a screeching halt to his rhetoric for change and moving our country in a new direction.

CODEPINK women call on Obama and his administration to reject a proven-false military solution, and call for a surge in diplomacy and humanitarian aid and an immediate withdrawal of all U.S. troops from Afghanistan.

“It makes no sense to appoint Richard Holbrooke to find a way out of the Afghan quagmire while sending 17,000 more troops,” said Medea Benjamin, CODEPINK co-founder. “You can’t do diplomacy while widening the war. We must freeze the number of troops, engage in immediate diplomatic efforts — with Afghan women at the table — and then replace our military mission with a humanitarian, reconstruction mission. That would reflect the change the American people voted for.

Holy CRAP. Are leftists really this stupid?

Uhhh — Yes! What else would you expect from someone suffering a socialist-liberal edumakation?

Holy CRAP. Are leftists really this stupid? Here’s a primer:

GERMANY: The country who hadn’t attacked us at Pearl Harbor, declared war on because British agents were stirring things up in DC since the UK was getting their asses kicked and FDR needed a real solution to the Great Depression. The same goes for Italy.

When you declare war, you go after anybody and everybody, not just a single perp. Saddam Hussein was sending $25,000 checks to the families of Palestinian suicide bombers. He sheltered many an international terrorist. He might not have had anything to do with 9/11, but he was dirty, an enabler of terrorism. Bin Laden chose Afghanistan because it was the sort of lawless place he knew he could escape from if he needed to. Besides, look at him now. He has to hide. We haven’t heard from him in months. His command and control are regularly eliminated. What’s worse for a man like that, death or humiliation?

Way to go, Michelle!!!

Not that I’m asking for GPS coordinates or anything, but has MM become my Colorado neighbor to help turn this blue/purple state back to RED? I’m warmed by the thought. Bless her.

The place from which military resources were diverted (making it easier for Bin Laden to escape) to help create a clusterf*ck in Iraq.

I hope this clears things up.

In all likelihood OBL had already left Afghanistan well before the invasion of Iraq. If he is still alive he is likely in Pakistan, maybe even in Iran or even Dearborstan for all we know.

I hope this clears things up.

How convenient it is that you forget (do you have a short attention span problem, ADHD?) the real reasons why we liberated the Iraqi people. WMD was a small part of the total number of reasons, that you have conveniently forgotten. (Holy Crap, you are THAT stupid and forgetful.)

The main stream aka dinosaur media are just like democrats. If they didn’t have a double standard, they’d have no standards at all.

IRAQ: The country that had no weapons of mass destruction and nothing to do with 9/11, invaded because PNAC douchebags like Rumsfeld and Wolfowitz have been wanting to get a foothold in the oil-producing nations since the late 90′s.

AFGHANISTAN: One-time home of Osama Bin Laden, responsible for 9/11, who Dubya gave up looking for. The place from which military resources were diverted (making it easier for Bin Laden to escape) to help create a clusterf*ck in Iraq.

I hope this clears things up.
