useful info.....
He’s dumber than a box of rocks. I guess that’s why the Kollege Kiddies all love him.
What did BO say about Musharraf?
the #1 problem was his response if Iran attacks Israel. That’s going to really hurt Obama
we gave him billions and he cut deals with the Taliban
Stop confusing the Obamabots with facts.
He was a dictator and we gave him 10 billion over 7 years....is what I remember.
To me, this was the big thing of the night. Obama was befuddled with his answer. He doesn't have a doctrine.
McCain Doctrine was clear --------Victory Doctrine.
Obama truly lost the debate right there. I couldn't believe that the FoxNewsChannel pundits did not pick up on it.
bttt
it does not matter what a liberal-socialist says
if his followers don’t notice or care.
but Obama didn't offer even this much of a plan. Anyone who has cut over to Obama in the last few weeks because of his economic positions has got to be wondering why after tonight. McCain may not have won the debate, but Obama surely supressed his own vote tonight.
I know who he is, I missed what BO said about him. I just heard his name but I was in the other room so was wondering.
I will read the transcript.
He never offers much of a plan. He wants to spend $15 billion to free us from foreign oil in 10 years, never says what he is going to do with the money or how it will free us. I think most of his plans can not be told out loud, like this mandatory service crap. We need a commerical telling him to keep his hands off our kids!
Thank you very much, I really appreciate it.
The other thing that I’d like to see more discussion about — Obama keeps saying we are spending x amount of dollars per month in Iraq, and then says Iraq has a surplus of something like 96 billion dollars.
Is Obama in fact trying to suggest that we make Iraq PAY to feed, and protect OUR SOLDIERS, and provide their equipment (arms and ammunition)? Because that is sure as heck what it sounds like!
Also, Obama pretends that the money we have spent in Iraq was a waste because if we hadn’t been spending that money somehow Wall Street wouldn’t have gone into a crisis? Who is he kidding, really? Did we take the money AWAY from these mortgage companies somehow and divert it to the military? I thought not... This guy is a colossal idiot.
He called Musharraf a DICTATOR and/or a TYRANT, IIRC. I’m going to go check the transcript right now as after the last debate I know I’m definitely capable of hearing things WRONG! LOL
now don't try to get that rumor started , you'll have genius Danielle and the Fight the Smears gang knocking on our doors in the middle of the night!
Here is the dialogue from the transcript over on CNN [
“And the reason Pakistan — the popular opinion of America had diminished in Pakistan was because we were supporting a dictator, Musharraf, had given him $10 billion over seven years, and he had suspended civil liberties. We were not promoting democracy.”
As far as I know Musharaff in some cases was PREVENTING militant terrorists and THEOCRATIC TYRANTS from taking over the country and turning it into another Iran. As I recall Musharaff actually helped pass legislation that gave women MORE rights - particularly when it came to things like rape accusations... Again, I would have to re-educate myself because it’s been over a year since I looked into that particular point, but regardless, Obama is WRONG. The COST of NOT supporting Musharraf was losing Pakistan as even a “lukewarm” ally because Al Qaeda backed militants and terrorists were constantly trying to take over his country, and to let them have control of nuclear weapons is INSANITY!
