I’d love to see a woman running Iraq.

She’d at least have more balls than the rest of them who claim to be what best serves Iraq’s ‘diverse’ cultural chaotic scene.

Markets get blown up regularly

Either grow some or get out of the way, Maliki and gang,

This is gonna get ugly.. IMHO.

I prefer the random, un-targeted air strikes, Hamass style

my thought...as he continues to read and read...back and forth..his head moves...and he seems to be dragging it out...

He knows his rating are tanking...this is what he chose to do to help him out of a jam...there is no need for this drawn speech...

ALL HE NEEDED TO SAY...WE ARE GOING TO AIR STRIKE THE TERRORIST IN IRAQ AND WE WILL SEND IN FOOD AND WATER TO AID THE IRAQ’S CITIZENS...

I’m sure he’s very uncomfortable about having to take this particular Iraq action despite every other military action he’s authorized over the last 6 years.

Well, he did use the term “terrorists” instead of “freedom fighters”.

I could sense that he hated to use the word “Christian”.
He had to qualify it with the phrase “religious minorities”
I heard the talk of a Paper Tiger.
Dammit, it should have never got to this point. Damn Obama to hell!
God protect our forces. Amen

He seemed tense and scripted. No doubt he loathes having to do anything remotely connected to Iraq.

I kind of liked what I heard
He must understand that his entire Armed Forces have had about of him and his ambiguous ambivalence. They are the ones that hold the real power in our country , not him , and he knows that.
Thank goodness for our war fighters !

Trippi says “the President doesn’t care about the politics”...

I was wondering the same thing. It sounded like Bush wrote it or someone in the military.
