There is an ever growing outrage throughout America about Barack Obama’s disconnect from Americans and his lack of concern about the well being and will of the American people.
In an open letter to Mr.Obama, retired Senior Airman Brian Kolfage (USAF) and triple amputee expresses his disgust with the president. Kolfage writes about his experience in unlawful and illegal wars, Obama’s hypocrisy when it comes to “inequality” and a variety of other subjects that cast Barack Obama in a deservingly negative light.
My Open Letter to Obama. I nearly died in a war that you and most of your colleagues supported overwhelmingly, including the two presidents who came before you. Many citizens may not agree with waging war in Iraq to free the oppressed Iraqi citizens, but it’s something that warriors like myself have zero control over. I joined to serve my country and to better my life. I’ve seen things that you could never imagine, and they have made me the person I am today.

These soldiers are absolutely frustrated and at their wits end the way O’Bummer changed the rules of engagement in Afghanistan. And the way all the competent leaders have been shoved out so O’Bummer’s incompetent cronies who are politically correct losers were promoted to run our military into the ground while building his domestic police force to suppress us.
I commend the writer for letting the President know of his opinion, but he could have used a good editor. The first part, about class and privledge is somewhat gratuitous and not really necessary. It just sounds as though he’s jealous of the wealthy and still embittered. The last third, when he sums up and concludes the letter is very effective. Is it really that easy to volunteer for redeployment to go back into the hot spots? Perhaps redeployment to the front lines in a hot war really is easy, because few wish to jump right back into that quagmire.
The man isn’t pretending to be a professional writer. He’s a triple amputee G.I. He doesn’t need a critique from anybody. How many letters have you written to the Liar-In-Chief?
I’m just disappointed that it wasn’t a REAL f**k you letter. Obama needs to hear that a few million times.

Prepare to be audited, Senior Airman. And, oh yeah, your VA paperwork, for your medical and disability claims...it’s been lost.
I thnk he’s just zeroing in on the fact that Zero plays the inequality or race card (same thing in his book), while having not an inkling of what inequality is or that it affects peole of all races. And especially his hypocrisy in playing that card while cutting military wages and benefits, access to quality healthcare, etc.
Zero, like so many of his double standard cohorts on the left, wouldn’t personally sacrifice one thin dime or one nano second in the cause of inequality, but they will take from the middle class and working poor, both classes shrinking, to “redistribute” for votes.
The letter is excellent and the man is a hero. The letter itself is a very worthy read.
I have not made the personal sacrifices this brave veteran has made, and in no way does anything in my life compare to his experiences. With that said though, I do not trust this administration.
I would never write to this President using my real name, or using my own computer, or email, or profile, unless the cause was that important to me, and unless I was good and ready for one of his IRS Punishment Audits. I would need to be self insured and ready to support myself in a self employed manner, come what may in the way of personal slander. It’s truly that bad right now, and sounds as though I should be describing Putin today or how it was before Gorbechev.
A lot is being left unsaid right now, in both American parties, believe me. When Obama is finally out of office, watch for retrospective books and filmed documentaries from both parties start shooting out. The reporters who were too afraid, blockaded, or dissuaded from doing their work. The CIA and Secret Service men, who strangely, kept getting into trouble for drunkeness and whoring, more so in this administration than even the Clinton era, when everyone knows how Hillary hated seeing any military or guard details in her presence. Even then, I suspect only 20% of The Quieted will be willing to come forward. Many years may have to pass in order to cushion the impact of what The Quieted have been waiting to say to us.
“Never forget, it was your people who sent us there, like the Clinton’s, John Kerry, Nancy Pelosi & Carl Levin.”
That is the exact message that the GOP should have used in 2008 and 2012 and must do in 2014 and 2016 and that is that Iraq was and is a Democratic War. The failure of Iraq from our entry to our cut and run away from Iraq is the fault of the Democratic Party.
The soldier is the only hope for this country. And that is only if they get fed up enough with what they’re being ordered to do and being forced to leave their brothers behind in places like Benghazi.
