Mitch McConnell just called-out Obama on Afghanistan, insisting that O make a decision on the request for more troops in Afghanistan. McConnell also wants Generals McChrystal and Petraus to come to Congress for a hearing about how they believe the war is being conducted.

White House responds that it takes time to make these decisions ("Present!") and is clearly annoyed that anyone in Congress would question Obama.

Developing.

DAMN! SOMEBODY needs to do something...the situation over there doesn't warrant a waiting period.
How about some action NOW!!!
They need backup over there right now,not a month or so from now!!
God,these creeps in Congress are p!$$ing me off so bad....and that worthless SOB in power is even worse.

[pollywog]

Conservative Congress members are going to need to step up to the plate like this more and more!!! Hold O’s feet to the fire.

“annoyed that anyone in Congress would question Obama”.

annoyed that anyone would question Obama. There, that makes it more truthful.

Mitchie is my Ky senator. I’m surprised he came out from under his desk long enough to make such a statement. As a typical RINO, Mitchie is far more interested in “getting along” and winning perpetual re-election, than representing the American people by standing against our White House thug. Yep, quite out of character for Mitchie.

DITTO!

I was saying all the time before Obama was elected that he wouldn’t be able to vote “present” if he became President. thanks for proving me wrong Obama, it is now ok for the president to vote “present” while our troops’ lives are in danger.

This is one of the nastiest diversions this POS has used so far...It is going to capture everyone’s attention and kill our troops so that he can forward his marxist agenda while our attention is elsewhere.

Barry is busy. Doesn’t Hussein have another Okra Winfrey appearance scheduled?

Voting present was so much easier.

With everybody calling everybody out these days, we may have to dust off the dueling pistols.

Thats exactly what I always say about my senator, Roberts (KS). He's hiding under his desk.

McConnell with two big call-outs in two days. Call me a cynic ... but something tells me he's starting to position himself for 2012.

Not that I'd mind all that much: we need somebody to do it.

Can you say “You guys in Somalia don’t NEED any armored vehicles ...”

And how many of our brave soldiers died ???

Thanks Bill (you gutless coward).

Thanks Big O ( you gutless .................... )

[annieokie]

Anyone taking a head count on the dead since O took office and made this HIS war???? Guess not, the nightly news is too busy covering O's a$$ every night. More important to talk about Racism and teabaggers.

Any psychiatrist worth his/her salt will tell you that Narcissists and other egomaniacs cannot stand to have their judgment questioned.

Mark Levin is right.

Americans are living in a soft tyranny.

Obama dallied,
the enemy rallied.

"White House responds that it takes time to make these decisions..."

As much time as was spent on Porkulus and Obamacare?

Spot on!

I believe that Dr. Charles Krauthammer once referred to El Presidente as a Narcissist.

When a seasoned, practicing Psychiatrist refers to El Presidente as a Narcissist, I tend to believe Dr. Krauthammer is right on!
