Ironically, the Obama adminstration has produced more fruits in eight short months than anyone thought possible.

” Gibbs and facts in the same article, LOL! “

Actually, he made this accusation, but did not offer any ‘facts’ of his own to refute Mr. Cheney’s assertions...

Slippery in ways that ‘Slick Willie’ never dreamed of.....

Yea—Whenever a Marxist Demrat includes the word “clearly” in what they’re saying it means “lies to follow”.

Wow.

From the crowd that predicted 100,000 dead soldiers during intial Iraq invasion, said elections would never come about, claimed the surge wouldn't work, and are still claiming anti-missile technology "doesn't work", it takes big ones to harp on someone else's predictions.

Would this be the spokesman for the president that siad it was not our intent to “win” in Afghanistan? That sure worked out well, didn’t it.

PAPER: Afghanistan is now Obama’s war...

U.S. commander: Situation serious...

White House: Obama has not yet read Afghan assessment...

http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D9AE0UM81&show_article=1

The White House spokesman says President Barack Obama has not yet seen a new assessment of the Afghan war.

Robert Gibbs said Monday that the report is making it’s way “up the chain of command.” Gen. Stanley McChrystal’s report was delivered to NATO allies and the Pentagon earlier Monday.

Gibbs said the president had asked for the assessment of the 8-year-old war, realizing that the effort had been “under-resourced” for “the better part of a decade.” Gibbs said that McChrystal’s report was separate from any possible request for more troops that could come later.

******

After eight months Obama, et al, are still blaming Bush. What a surprise! /s

And Obama, et al, (including extended family) are taking off for a ‘vacation from a vacation’ on Wednesday to Camp David. When does this arrogant idiot actually work?!

Cheney said enhanced interrogation did help to kept America safe following 911. An indisputable fact. Only as partisan hack would say otherwise.

“Predictions” are for overrated, Ivy League weaklings who make their living bending words.

The Bush-Cheney Administration’s ACTIONS on the other hand, have run an international terrorist organizations a$$es into the ground, and in THEIR own backyard.

Even the densest of LIEberals, Gibbs should concede that this makes the job of your thoroughly unaccomplished, talentless boss substanitially easier.

Wanna talk predictions, boy? How about the liberal prediction that invading Iraq would create an army of terrorists that would endanger the U.S.??? Or that Iraq would be another Vietnam??? Or that Sunni and Shia would never cooperate???

For that matter, how about the prediction that if Zero "engaged" the world's bad boys their behavior would change. Care to explain just how that's occurred???

None of it has happened.

I’m sure the honorable former Vice President of the United States would be more than happy to debate bobby on the subject.
