There is absolutely no such distinction in your posting other than after the fact claims of sarcasm -which it clearly was not. Am I to believe that your comment: “the bases we are closing cannot be used to aid and abet the terrorists and run clandestine ops to insure they come out ahead. These new bases could serve all these purposes...” actually applies to Obama and not the US military or is somehow just sarcasm? Your argument is ridiculous like the whole lot of the ‘we-created-ISIS-so-how-can-we-bomb-them’ crowd.

Your ability to misinterpret what others write is awe-inspiring. Your defense of the misinterpretation is tiresome. Have a good day (or did I just say I hope you get it good today)?

Actually ... the way I read it, it sounds like the statement refers to the caspacity of a physical plant rather than a person or persons ....

"Am I to believe that your comment: “the bases we are closing cannot be used to aid and abet the terrorists and run clandestine ops to insure they come out ahead. These new bases could serve all these purposes...” actually applies to Obama and not the US military or is somehow just sarcasm?"

but then ... I'm no master of the Mobius loop ... just fascinated by it.

Because a physical plant can “aid and abet the terrorists and run clandestine ops to insure they come out ahead” eh?

Spin much?

Read trebb’s comment again:

“the bases we are closing cannot be used to aid and abet the terrorists and run clandestine ops to insure they come out ahead. These new bases could serve all these purposes...”

Trebb is making the accusation that past and future US bases in Iraq are used to covertly aid terrorists.

We lost 4,700 troops in Iraq fighting the very same Sunni terrorist organization that some morons are saying we’re helping. The two of you are plainly ignorant, mis-informed and quite obviously incorrigible.

OK, OK ... I confess ... I'm a member of the ISIS booster club ... which is why I haven't antagonistically attacked YOU.

But you MUST stop your feigned taqila and at least pretend you're an American patriot.

Thanx, bro.

Sigh...

This is response to Justa - copied knarf because he was dragged into it.

Perhaps some folks need it spelled out for them. My comments were based on this administrations penchant for aiding and abetting terrorists. While DOD may make certain decisions as far as which bases to close and where to open new ones, they also must defer a bunch to the Congress (both houses in case you want to misinterpret it as just the Republican-led House) and the Commander-in-Chief. I thought maybe the 'clandestine ops" part might have caused a thinking man to recall Benghazi, but, alas, I was wrong (or you are not a thinking man). Of course, I also realize that there are some here that are incapable of grasping irony/sarcasm or even entertaining another thought once they get their little teeth embedded in an idea that strikes them as cogent. Now that I know of your disability, I will not expect anything cogent from you in the future.
