They’d botch the invasion of Grenada.

If Barry and his boys feel the need to pick a fight with Iran, I’d like to suggest that we send every politician, lawyer and judge on Capitol Hill over there for the first year so they can get their “rules of engagement” straight before sending any of America’s sons and daughters over there to be killed because of the dumb@$$ “rules” created by those anti-American buffoons on Capitol Hill.

We have seen enough young American blood shed in the M.E.

If action is needed bombard and bomb the snot out of them until they stop twitching.

Obama would never support an attack on Iran unless the Muslim Brotherhood thought it was a good idea.

Obama is a MUSLIM IN FULL.

You underestimate the enemy.

Allah is Satan...he will not fall without massive collateral damage (and that means you and me).

They favor the drafting of my son and your son. Theirs? Not so much.

I’m worried about the arguments breaking out among combat troops now that gays and women are involved.
