Tuned into the debate last night and this idiot Obama proved again does not have a clue.
He made the statement that US platoons are going short manned to Afganistan because a portion of them are being sent to Iraq. Then he said our soldiers in Afganistan are so poorly equipped they are using captured Taliban munitions!
I can guarantee you if this was the case the media would have been all over it months or years ago. Who is going to challenge him on this?
Hey this thread is linked on the ABC news website! The other thread was a lot more specific, though. I will link that thread next.
Another thread with more specific refutation of Obama’s ridiculous claim:

Unfortunately, it seems like the story might be true.

Lord, this event happened over FOUR YEARS AGO. Obama spoke in the context of it being a recent regular occurance, maybe no longer ago than a month or two.
Obama is scoundrel
check out Jake Tapper on ABC—the story checked out. Sorry guys but the grand days of the GOP are over, get used to it. Obama will be the next president.
