Obama: Stop Enabling The President

WMAQ ^ | July 20, 2007 | ap

So who will win the leftist "war"?

[Baladas]

General Obama will win this war, silly! Just elect him and stop enabling America’s self-destruction.

A great military mind is indeed a terrible thing to waste. They’ll talk to the terrorists and make everything a whole lot better.

Pinky-swear!

[kromike]

It sure as hell won't be the U.S.

Dear God, this man is naive.

[ilgipper]

Obama is the single least qualified candidate for the Presidency that I have seen in my lifetime. I wish he could be their candidate because any major GOP candidate could squish him like a gnat in the general election.

What was he, a state senator for awhile and has about six months in the Senate with no accomplishments before he decides to run for President? Even Kerry served more than 20 years with an unimpressive Senate record before he ran.

Civilians control the military and we are supposed to set the mission for the generals and then the generals should carry out the mission

That Obama POS doesn't understand how the constitution and the federal government works. The president is the duly elected commander-in-chief of the country, elected by the people. Once the people make their choice, the president carries out his duties as dictated by the constitution and as a representative of the will of the people.

Is Obama even an American? Does he understand that he is in America and the president commands the military and not the people? That would be so chaotic and idiotic to run government and a war through polls. Barack, IDIOT! He's not even qualified to run the local hot dog stand.

This man is a total freaking moron. Civilians can't even control their own brats, much less the military.

The "other" travesty is that this idiot has a chance of being elected because that fat Oprah says, "He be da man."

"When President Bush says, 'I just want to give the commanders what they want, listen to the generals,' he doesn't understand how we work here in America. Civilians control the military and we are supposed to set the mission for the generals and then the generals should carry out the mission," Obama said at an outdoor town hall meeting.

Excuse me, Mr. Osama-Obama - if you want to be POTUS, you had better study up a little bit. The mission IS set by the President, but is carried out by the Generals who are THERE on the SCENE and who have the TRAINING, and KNOWLEDGE that most American's don't have. We LISTEN to what the Generals say because they know what they NEED to carry out the MISSION that was given TO them.

Mr. Obama - say you work for a mechanic. Your job is to fix a car. Your mission assigned you is to diagnose and fix the car. You are given a preliminary set of tools to diagnose the problem. When you get into the repair, you find additional problems - your boss in the shop says - no, you have to finish up with what you have and get out (even if the problem isn't fixed, or the problem is now worse because the engine is taken apart).... Or does your boss count on your training, experience, and knowledge to tell him what you need to fix it (additional parts, labor, time)?

Obama - just keep opening your mouth - because every time you do, you prove to the American people that you ARE NOT qualified to be POTUS...

This and his assertion that it is not worth being at war to prevent Genocide (what about the previous DemocRAT admin - didn't THEY go to war to prevent supposed genocide? Oh - that doesn't count.

And this schmuck... wants to be President?

God help us... if he gets in!

[KStorm]

He says we have to hunt them down and take them out. To all but a small number of common-sense liberals, saying we have to hunt them down and take them out constitutes all their national defense plans.

[Brimack34]

WOW President Bush beat to Viet Nam vets?

[JoeSixPack1]

Hey,, PSSTT... Hussein Obama..listen up: We are a Democratic Republic. Not a mob rule democracy. We elect leaders to make decisions. When they make the wrong decision we vote them out.

If they can't make decisions, we elect them as Senators.

[Williams]

Obama has to be pretty damn dumb if he doesn’t understand what Bush said. Of course Bush selected the mission, now he listens to the generals on how to carry it out.

[Shadowstrike]

civilians control the military?

uhm....no.

[AlphaOneAlpha]

“Dear God, this man is naive.”

He’s a somewhat articulate empty suit show-pony whose hustling for the VP nomination.

[Frank_2001]

Agreed! And this guy is a Harvard graduate? You’re better off saving big $$$$ and sending your kids to the local community college. Oy vay!

[A.A. Cunningham]

Barack Hussein learned all about the military while he was loaded on pot and cocaine.
