Yes, there are some signs in that direction.

My view of 0bama is “there is no there there”.

>>Remember Carthage?

Only by the vague history the Romans wrote for their conquest.

Obama has betrayed 12 years of our armed forces’ blood and sacrifice so he can hand over Afghanistan to the Taliban which ruled there before the 9//11 attacks.

You got it.
We all saw this coming the minute he set a deadline.
The “surge” was WORKING, till then.

Madrassas out for the summer!
Madrassas out for the summer!

Remember kids, don’t cut the blue wire and
be sure to brush out your tracks...

Madrassas out for the summer!
Madrassas out for the summer!

What else can you say but poor rear guard bastards.

He should be the last one to leave!!!
See how he likes that.

That’s what my Infantry PL son told me, and I am scared to death.

He’ll be there till September.

Please keep him in you prayers along with the rest of our brave men and women.


Absolutely... many prayers up for your son’s safety, and that of his fellow warfighters.

Afghanistan has seen Soviets come and go... who would/could have thunk that the US would come, but then go more like the Soviets did?

It makes sense. First, we beat the Soviet Union. Then we became them.

I long for a day when we can return to the democrats the ‘Party of War’ mantle they held for the majority
of the 20th century.
