		<description>He certainly has some screwed up priorities.  Fly to Copenhagen to be the pitchman for Chicago Olympics rather than support and protect our troops!  UNBELIEVABLE!  

Since this idiot took office there HASN&#039;T been a day I havent&#039;s said UNBELIEVABLE!</description>

		<description>LOL!

Remember... During the campaign, Iraq was a &quot;war of choice&quot;, but Afghanistan is where the &quot;real&quot; war on Islamonutballs was being waged. That is where we needed to go to fight terrorism.

Now?

Not so much...

Let&#039;s give terrorists Miranda rights on the battlefield and start prosecuting our own soldiers.

Please! God! Help us....</description>

		<description>Khun,

I think Obambi is worse than Carter.  I am old enough to remember the hostage crisis.  While Carter was hiding under his desk whining about &quot;diplomatic immunity&quot; and thinking those crazy radical islamic terrorists were going to play by the &quot;kings rules of diplomacy&quot;, our country was just winding down from LOSING the Vietnam war, again thanks to the liberals who gave up on victory.  

Obambi is Commander in Chief to a STRONG military, albeit a reduced in size military, but still this military knows how to WIN.  Instead, this pantywaste is wee weeing his pants because he doesn&#039;t know what to do.

God Bless our troops and keep them safe!!!</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;So this a$$wipe is voting present? Every soldier who dies since this report was presented to the white house, is blood on Obambi’s hands. &lt;strong&gt;Have we ever had such a weak kneed yellow belly’d loser ever in the white house?&lt;/strong&gt; AUGH

karenhasfreedom on September 27, 2009 at 4:24 AM&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Answer: Carter (see Iran hostage crisis)...

And, delaying a decision &lt;strong&gt;IS&lt;/strong&gt; a decision...</description>

		<description>&lt;strong&gt;I&#039;m glad Obama wasn&#039;t in charge after Pearl Harbor. We&#039;d still be trying to get the Japanese to the negotiating table. To win and sit on the deck of the Mighty Mo as victor would have repelled his sense of World Leader or something.&lt;/strong&gt;</description>

		<description>McChrystal knew our Community Organizer in Chief was going to kick the can on the troops and then try to pass the buck to  him. This way everyone knows who knows what. Don&#039;t blame McChrystal one bit. Just keeping the Bamster honest, that&#039;s all.</description>

		<description>I thought it was rumored that McChrystal leaked this report to Woodward at the WashedupPost because it had been sitting on NObama&#039;s desk since August 30 and now Ogabe wants to stall some more?

Meanwhile, our soldiers are trying to fight over there as best they can and too many are getting killed because of C-i-C NObama&#039;s Kumbaya Rules of Engagement and his aversion to Victory as a military goal.</description>

He knows this.  He doesn&#039;t care.  After all, they are his toys to play with.  If he breaks a few, so what?  He&#039;s got plenty and no emotional attachment to any of them.  At this point his end cannot come soon enough.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;I think McCrystal did the right thing to assess and give a reality check, rather than pretend it was going to work out more easily.

&lt;strong&gt;Clearly, we’re losing.&lt;/strong&gt;

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Well, that also could be right, with enough effort. But I do ask the same question. What are we really winning?

Haven’t we been here before? We established the Taliban.

What we WERE winning under GWB is that we were being proactive instead of reactive to an enemy that has been trying to destroy us since 700 AD. 

I&#039;ve worked with the military long enough to be able to make some educated guesses. Namely that there was enough intelligence gathered during the early Afghanistan operation to mandate that we move against Saddam and Iraq ASAP. 

There are only three things that radical islam will accept from us non believers

a. Death
b. Conversion
c. Dhimmitude (A total submission to their law

That&#039;s it, there is no other choice. Oh, and as far as the numbers of &#039;radical islamists&#039;, we are talking hundreds of millions. 

Radical islam has been held in check previously through the efforts of leaders like Charles Martel and Jan III Sobieski when his 3000 winged Hussars smashed 30,000 Turks and Tatars at the battle of Vienna in 1683. 

GWB, because of the politically correct environment, could not take the stance of Sobieski &quot;First ve kill dem, den ve count dem&quot;. He was hamstrung by the leftists and myopics in congress and the press. 

To answer your question, I&#039;m not sure what we are doing there now with our jugears in chief at the helm but whatever it is, it isn&#039;t giving me a warm fuzzy feeling. 

I had attended a speech by GWB where he did drop a hint as to his overall strategy. It was basically to give some of the people there a taste of freedom and democracy and hope it spreads. I&#039;m not sure that would have worked under GWB and I&#039;m almost certain it won&#039;t work under the Chicago Community Acorn Organizer.</description>
