Conyers: Obama war plans “embarrassingly naive”
Hot Air ^ | April 10, 2009 | ED MORRISSEY

Barack Obama had better prepare himself for just as much skepticism on Afghanistan at home as he got from Europe. Obama wants $75 billion more allocated for the efforts in Afghanistan and Iraq, but his own caucus in the House appears to be balking. Rep. John Conyers (D-MI) called Obama’s plans “embarrassingly naive”, and may put Obama in Bush territory on the wars — looking for Republican cover (via Jim Geraghty):

The Obama presidency needs a military victory.

Afghanistan and Iraq will be small potatoes once Israeli strikes Iran and the Iranians retaliate by hitting US interest in the Persian Gulf area. That what I want to know about, what plans does President Obama have in dealing with the Iranians?

Conyers seems to have it in for wonderboy... things that make you say hmmmmm....

Have you noticed how congressional dems aren't falling all over themselves to be seen with The One? With the kind of access those people have, dontcha think they'd be falling all over themselves to ingratiate themselves with Jesus Christ Jr.? And yet it's not happening; in fact, things like Conyers attacks are happening. The last I heard out of Prince Harry was an admonition to MoveOn.org to move on and quit targeting blue dog dems for not supporting The Kenyan's budget. Call me crazy, but I think the dems are trying to figure out how to neutralize the empty suit in the WH without getting any on them.

Conyers is one Congress Critter who should NEVER offer advice or criticism.

He and his wife “represent” and have been running a scam for decades in their homey boy ghetto of Detroit.

He is one unjustifiably arrogant black racist who should first SHOW and PRACTICE what he preaches before he attempts to sit in judgment against others..

The simpleton bastard hasn't earned the right to be critical of ANYONE - including the black racist poseur president.

When an idiot like Conyers calls you out on being dumb....that’s pretty bad.

I mean, that’s like Michael Moore saying about some guy “Hey, look at the fat slob over there!”

If you are right, I guess, I better get ready for WW4.
