Really? You mean like I said back in post #56?
McChrystal is no hero. He is a politician.
You're entitled to your opinion, regardless of how ignorant or stupid.
I’m worried that THE BOW is making people forget about forthood..... BUT I’ve not watched the news since this latest bow happened, so I don’t know if the bow is an issue. I hope Fort Hood is still the top news story. I started making a new fort hood thread a little while ago. I think it’ll be a lot easier to navigate.
Oh Mestamachine....you’re gonna make me cry again. That picture tells A HUGE STORY. THANK YOU...
“Well fortunately for us, we’ve got two guys who’re intimately familiar with the situations in Iraq and Afghanistan making the decisions, and they’ve formulated a plan based upon their experience and knowledge.”
“Unfortunately, I guess they’re just not as smart as you.”
You speak with forked keyboard.
We aren’t forgetting. And as long as the MSM keep trying to gin up sympathy for this piece of islamic garbage, the outrage will grow.
Here is just ONE example of what is going on under Obama as CIC.

Rosa Brooks, Senior Advisor to the Under Secretary of Defense for Policy (Know Your Czars)
In April 2009, Rosa Brooks was appointed senior advisor to the Under Secretary of Defense for Policy, Michele Flournoy. Brooks also served as special counsel to the president at the Open Society Institute, a front organization for George Soros’s global world government campaign.
She is the daughter of Barbara Ehrenreich, the co-chair of the Democratic Socialists of America. She also serves on the NORML Board of Directors and The Nation's Editorial Board.
Brooks’ work is referenced on the 9/11 Scholars for Truth (TRUTHERS) website for support of their crackpot theories;
Ms. Brooks, known for her scathing attacks on common sense and the Bush administration, is expected to play a major role in influencing U.S. policy.

“DOD worker assessed Fort Hood suspect months ago”
WASHINGTON – Finger-pointing erupted between federal agencies Tuesday over Fort Hood shooting suspect Nidal Hasan. Government officials said a Defense Department terrorism investigator looked into Hasan’s contacts with a radical imam months ago, but a military official denied prior knowledge of the Army psychiatrist's contacts with any Muslim extremists.
The two government officials, speaking on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the case on the record, said the Washington-based joint terrorism task force overseen by the FBI was notified of communications between Hasan and a radical imam overseas, and the information was turned over to a Defense Criminal Investigative Service employee assigned to the task force. The communications were gathered by investigators beginning in December 2008 and continuing into early this year.
That Defense investigator wrote up an assessment of Hasan after reviewing the communications and the Army major's personnel file, according to these officials. The assessment concluded Hasan did not merit further investigation — in large part because his communications with the imam were centered on a research paper about the effects of combat in Iraq and Afghanistan and the investigator determined that Hasan was in fact working on such a paper, the officials said.
The disclosure came as questions swirled about whether opportunities were missed to head off the massacre in which 13 died and 29 were wounded last Thursday — a familiar, early stage in the investigation of headline-grabbing crimes when public officials involved in a case often speak anonymously as they try to shift any blame to rivals in other agencies.
The disclosure Tuesday of the defense investigator's role indicated that the U.S. military was aware of worrisome behavior by the massacre suspect long before the attack. Just hours later, a senior defense official, also demanding anonymity, directly contradicted that notion.
The senior defense official said neither the Army nor any other part of the Defense Department knew of Hasan’s contacts with any Muslim extremists. But the defense official carefully conceded this view was based upon what the Pentagon knows now.
Yeah, and here we are. Our Military is in a shambles, and everyone is doing their best ostrich imitation while our Troops, overseas as well as HERE in our own back yard, are dying.
But WE are the uniformed and ignorant. Yeah. Right.
