US Marines are at the vanguard of the fight against the Taliban in Afghanistan.

Our correspondent Ian Pannell has travelled to one of the Marines' most remote outposts, south of Garmisir, where he witnessed the heat of the battle. (VIDEO)

They've lost 13 men in 3 months, according to the report. They really do deserve better than what they're getting from Obama so far.

Don’t worry. In another 3-4 months the zero will call someone who may call someone in the marines

What an unbelieveable tragedy & travesty that we are losing men & women in Iraq & Afghanistan, under the false pretenses of that bastard usurper in the WH, pres___ent 0bozo. I really find it hard to believe that there are not senior officers (colonels, generals, admirals, etc) that do not openly challenge this usurper bastard’s legitimacy to even be a U.S. citizen, let alone a natural born U.S. citizen. We are losing our country more every day, and the very politicians & military officers & even the Supreme Court, who have the power & ability to challenge that commie pig usurper 0bozo are refusing to do so. I guess maybe our revolution really will be a grass roots uprising as the elitists are content with the way things are under 0bozo. God help & save our nation!!!

My neighbor has 4 children, two boy and two girls. Her two sons have died in the past five years. How she has handled the loss is beyond me. One of her daughters, a First Lieutenant in the Marines, is proudly serving in Afghanistan (for two weeks now) and I can’t possibly describe the worry this mother is experiencing. Please Lord, let our Commander in Chief make decisions that will protect our youth fighting against our enemies and for our freedoms. God bless this little girl whose picture has graced my refrigerator for a decade.

But the question is WHY? It absolutely makes no sense.

All credit goes to freeper ‘rcrngroup’ - I was quoting from post #4. I agree w/you!

Thank you! And I wish I had the answer to your post #6 as to why our senior officials, politicians, military officers and the Supreme Court appear to be so deathly afraid to challenge the legitimacy of 0bozo to be pres___ent of the U.S. It is just unbelieveable that every one or at least 99.9% of these individuals in positions of power are steadfastly refusing to defend our country & our constitution from foreign & domestic enemies. In this case, 0bozo qualifies as both!!!
