TCats, we need you in the US State Department. You and joe the Plumber could clean up our world image in about 2 weeks.

“Cut and run.”

Or more precisely, sellout our friends and run.

Obama is pissed at the reception that he got when he spoke to the US Marines recently. His revenge? Calling them and their brothers/sisters (US Army, Air Force, Navy, CG) losers in Afghanistan.

The mark of a true petty Tyrant and coward. This man, if you want to call him that, hasn't even one iota of an inkling of the stuggles, hardship and treasonous support (the liberals and MSM) have been subjected to. He doesn't even deserve to stand in the room with anyone who wears, or has worn, a uniform of the US Military, period....

Ah yes -- the American Left...snatching defeat from the jaws of victory for 233 years and still counting.

And he is doing a pretty fair job of destroying the U.S. financially.

If not checked in a few months the government will have nationalized 1/3 of the U.S. economic production.

The galling thing is the way we are constantly being hammered with "End of the World" scenarios while they are building nothing but a socialist state that is being funded ten, 20 years out...it's like we are in a house on fire and this Kenyan moron is forming a committee to study available blueprints for the possible purchase of a Fire Truck...

I’ve always been proud of our country. I’m deeply ashamed of this administration. They are destroying so much liberty, wealth and good will in this world that it defies comprehension.

Amen to that.

At least we won't have to worry about a military coup. Our military wouldn't follow Obama to a free lobster buffet.

Is the moderate wing made up of those who execute women in soccer stadiums, or the ones who blow up irreplaceable works of art? Or perhaps they are the ones who push walls over onto homosexuals.

No, Obama wants America to lose. It’s not quite the same thing.

Just like the fag dems did during my police action in Vietnam...didn’t even have the gonads to call it a war.

But I didn’t ever remember Johnson saying we were losing...

Obama CIC now that we are losing lets talk to the TallyBonn...????

And the mainstream media still remmains SILENT about this issue while bashing Limbaugh...AMAZING!!!

This clown and his clownlettes do not know what they are doing. The people should encourage him to party 24/7 with $100.00 steaks and rap music.
