Unbelievable!

A leader, a President, should not put his left wing before decisions of this magnitude.

But then again... he is so low in the polls he has to please his left wing to please himself.

Nuts!

This is why he’s declared war on the CIA...to try and get those moonbats to calm down. Won’t work.

end to the Afghanistan war before President Barack Obama can show signs of progress

Is that the point of the Afhgan war?

[KentTrappedInLiberalSeattle]

White House officials are increasingly worried liberal, anti-war Democrats will demand a premature end to the Afghanistan war before President Barack Obama can show signs of progress

Hey! He's surrendering as fast as he can, f'cryin' out loud!

....Afganistan will not be easily subdued...ask the Ruskies...ask the Brits....it is a primative collection of tribes; not a country.

After Obama has declared surrender and pulled us out of Afghanistan will come a backlash against him that will make the furor over Obamacare look mild. America has 20 million vets and family members and they are not timid in their approach to politics.

Now it is not good for the Christian’s health to hustle the Arian Brown,
For the Christian riles, and the Arian smiles, and it weareth the Christian down;
And the end of the fight is a tombstone white with the name of the late deceased,
And the epitath drear:”A fool lies here who tried to Hustle the East.”

They want the money for health care.

Remember when Obama was calling for surrender in Iraq??

Prediction:

Obama will announce troop withdrawals going into the 2010 election cycle. He will blame the Bush administration for making such serious errors in Afghanistan that cannot be overcome with military force on the ground and that two party negotiations with the Taliban will commence. This tact will be taken to appeal to the leftist base to shore up support for congressional incumbents and help take away attention from the abysmal economy and failure to get bi-partisan public option healthcare legislation enacted. In the meantime, Shamnesty II will be front and center to (once again)anchor the hispanic vote.
