Duh.
He’s gonna keep all the powers. He’s gonna put more troops in Afghanistan. He’s gonna keep the Pat Act. All of it.
I hope he does retain much of what has kept us safe since 9-11.
Because the tactics WORK!
Obama may be dumb, but he is obviously not stupid.
Retain Gates? I believe it when I see it. It would be a kick in the face of the anti-war left. They are a important part of his base. If his change was about keeping Bush’s SecDef Obama pretty much failed, unless he runs for greatest charlatan ever.
Two legs bad, four legs better!
0bama should just admit he’s already in over his head!
(What happened to his ‘plan’?)
In order to annoy my liberal friends and neighbors I may begin to refer to him as “That Stupid Black Bush”
Hussein Obama is in way over his head and is going to cause us a great deal of misery.
Running Chicago politics is not the same as operating on a global level.
Should the Obama team adhere to the very naive principles that they ran on for the purpose of pleasing their most left-wing supporters they would find themselves in deep trouble in short order. Al Qaeda will certainly exploit any sign of weakness by the U.S. In fact, Obama promised the left policies that would do that very thing. If he keeps that promise he will jeopardize his administration and risk a second term. I expect him to mostly renege on that promise because it will be in his own best interest to do so.
Sorry, I don’t believe anything this serial liar says or his serial liars say that he said.
He'll promise to only use them domestically, against suspected un-friends of the Marxist utopia.
Obama’s biggest problem will be keeping Nancy Pelosi in line. Harry Reid is Nancy’s boy, so if Rahm E. can keep Pelosi in check, then all will be well. So if they are going to leave the evil Bush policies in effect, then they’ll have to make sure Pelosi is ok with that. heh. Hypocrites. (but really this article doesn’t say anything definitive. it’s all speculation. what’s not speculation is that O. has to control Pelosi or he’ll be doomed.)
Present-dent..
New bumper sticker to inflame the moonbats:
Meet the new Boss, same as the old Boss.
“President-elect Barack Obama is unlikely to radically overhaul controversial Bush administration intelligence policies, advisers say,...”
Oh? Bears repeating...
“President-elect Barack Obama is unlikely to radically overhaul controversial Bush administration intelligence policies, advisers say,...”
Mark my words...Zero and his admin will make Homeland Security expand like a wrestler on steroids.
surprise, surprise, surprise. I already knew he would.
POS BS liars.
Mr. Obama may decide he wants to keep the road open in certain cases for the CIA to use techniques not approved by the military, but with much greater oversight…
Translation:
Obama to personally view waterboarding of conservatives.
What a leader. Centrism = Hawkish Stalinism wrapped in a flag.
