Sorry, Barack, but while the surge may have succeeded beyond your wildest dreams, it did not succeeded beyond the reasonable expectations of General Petraeus or John McCain. So why were you and your left-wing friends so wrong? The answer is simple, neither you nor they know squat about the capabilities of the American military.

Obama reminds me of my left-wing nut-case brother Paul. Paul was a person who could not deal with reality from an early age...and never outgrew being a child. When we were children, we set up a target in the back yard against the garage at which we threw snowballs. Paul never hit the target from ten feet, but he did hit the side of the garage. After I went inside, he drew a new target on the side of the garage with it's center encompassing the most hits from the snowballs he had thrown.

Obama is much the same. When he misses the mark, he claims that he either intentionally missed the mark or, failing that, that everyone else missed the mark by even more.

He is a f.f.f.fraud!

“Wow. He’s screwed and knows it. Anyone want to take bets the Obama camp PURPOSELY leaks damaging info about Biden, forcing his to leave the ticket? Guess who he’ll ask?

Hillary. “

Not in Hillary's best interests. Her best shot is to so completely discredit Obama that he is forced off the ticket and then she has literally a one month campaign before the election.

“I’ve already said” ..........When did this occur? How did I miss it?

Very good question. I want proof on tape that he said it. This is a typical lib ploy to deflect so that people won't realize they are idiots.

Yes, it makes my blood boil to hear him say this now.

I meant the tape where he said it the first time. Not the tape that claims he had said it before.

I think it succeeded beyond Barry's wildest dreams, but it went exactly according to General Petraus’ plan, and just as McCain predicted.

The ignoramus Barry and his ilk were the only ones surprised.

Well shoot! I’ve been tryin to reply to your #40 for about half an hour. They locked the thread @ #40 because of a couple of duplicates. I thought they could merge threads. I was really on a roll, now I’ve lost all my enthusiasm, dangit!!!

I took Giuliani’s ‘joke’ last night to be a very well disguised preemptive shot at 0bama dropping Biden and going for Hillary as VP. It would be incredibly damaging for him to try to switch now.

Your great reply really got me all charged up for some great come-backs, but they locked me out of the tread. I thought they knew how to merge duplicate threads. Shoot!!!

Nixon? Nobody I know voted for him.

The surge? Nobody I know thought it would work.

Obama: Surge Succeeded...

"BUT, I'm still going to press charges against Bush/Cheney".

What an acrimonious git...

Nice of him to admit that the US Military succeeding was beyond his wildest dreams.

I heard Obama (on the radio) being interviewed today about Sarah Palin’s speech, and he sounded like a defensive, whining puppy dog. I was floored. The confidence was completely gone. He sounded like a defeated man.
