Candidate Obama made another gaffe last night that is barely getting the MSM’s attention
Asked whether he would move U.S. troops out of Iraq to better fight terrorism elsewhere, he brought up Afghanistan and said, “We’ve got to get the job done there and that requires us to have enough troops so that we’re not just air-raiding villages and killing civilians, which is causing enormous pressure over there.”

In a fashion reminiscent of “Jen-Jis” Khan?

As an Afghanistan veteran I take umbrage with what this lightweight twit has to say.

It would be one thing if he was smart and evil - i.e. if he knew exactly what was going on there and was able to carefully select and manipulate facts in order to present a plausible misrepresentation of reality.
However, he's just stupid and evil - he knows nothing about what's going on and he's just making up allegations out of spite.

Obama’s a clown. No news there.

Obama’s own plan is to air-raid villages and kill civilians, but in Pakistan.
To: ianschwartz
It worked in Dresen and Tokoyo ...why not Tehran and Damascus.
