Obama Requests More Options for Troop Levels

Just like Kerry would have done.....

.....This is why you should never elect a liberal thinker....they never make up their mind.

I like multiple choice tests too. Of course, at the end of the day, he still has to decide.

We have a Poseur-In-Chief and not a Commander-In-Chief. It seems everything he does or tries to has the intent to destroy this nation and eliminate our God-given freedom and liberty.

We are in really, really deep sh!t as a country, perhaps in the greatest peril in our history...

I noticed the ring on the middle finger of the right hand.

Is this what Obama does? Is this the finger he uses for his wedding band? I have seen foreigners use this finger for their wedding rings..but...of course, Americans use the third finger of the left hand.

If is it true that Obama uses the middle finger of the right hand for his wedding ring, it is merely one more example of his rejection of American customs his identification with non-Western norms.

He is dithering because of schizophrenia in his basic motivations:

Spot on.

In addition, there is no side of the discussion on the war that feeds his narcissism, there is only risk. If he decides against war, and we pull out, he is giving in to our enemies and will forever be branded a quitter and a coward.

If he directs the military to wage war, and we win, it is because of the extraordinary effort and sacrifice of the military. If we lose, it is because Bam chose the wrong war or did not give the military the tools/direction they need for success.

So there are few opportunities for him to make campaign speeches and receive adulation to feed his sickness (narcissism). Unfortunately he signed up to be a leader, and these decisions are what leadership is about.

He is just not up to it.

Dither, dither, squirm and slither,
The One doesn’t care or won’t decide;
The brave are dying, families crying
All Obama protects is HIS thin-skinned hide.

“The clown is running around...Oh what to do, what to do? Bawwwwwhaaa”

Freeper FIREHAT puts it this way:

Obama’s agonizing over what to do about Afghanistan reminds us of the words of Oscar Levant who said, “Once I make up my mind I’m full of indecision.”

and

Having screwed up America, what makes the Democrats think Obama is the right guy to straighten out Afghanistan?

It just looks like 0 is an acting president.

Obambi does what he’s told. They’re (dims) trying to figure out their course.
That’s why he’s bawling like a rock star, he can’t stand the pressure.
He must be loved.

Lying has a very “honorable” place in Islam. I found this in “Understanding Dishonesty and Deceit in Islam”:

Kithman: Hiding the Truth

Kithman is a command to deliberately conceal one’s beliefs. It is a particular form of lying primarily practiced by the minority Shia’ Muslims. This doctrine is articulated by Imam Jafar Sadiq, the sixth Imam of Shia’ Islam:

One, who exposes something from our religion is like one who intentionally kills us.

You belong to a religion that whosoever conceals it, Allah will honor him and whosoever reveals it, Allah will disgrace him.

So Shia’ Muslims are commanded to purposefully hide what they truly believe in order to mislead outsiders as to the true nature of their religion.

The original is at http://www.answering-islam.org/Authors/JR/Future/ch16_understanding_dishonesty.htm. It comes from a site called “Answering Islam” at http://www.answering-islam.org/. I’ve heard before that it’s considered perfectly fine for Muslims to lie openly to non-Muslims, but this is the first analysis I’ve seen that extends that lying to hiding your religious affiliation if necessary.

Islam reminds me of a city like Quebec, which was once flourishing and then suddenly bypassed by history for a long,long time. In the case of Quebec, it leaves you with a beautiful city caught in the past. In the case of Islam, it leaves you with 7th-century barbarians living in the 21st century.

can’t make a decision on a church
can’t make a decision on what the Generals have asked for

But he can make a decision on taking his wife to NY for a date night.
can make decision on what curtains to have
what paint to use for the walls and what color.
Can make a decision based on no facts of a cop arresting a black man

seems his priorities are certainly not for this country but hey maybe finding a church is so hard for him too I mean he was in a racist anti American church for 20 with no problem but not now it became a problem.

and the left just keeps on being the sheep by following blindly to their tabloids and B/S

that is if you by his B/S but the truth is he loves being in a racist anti American church and can’t right now so he holds off/

the it shows how clueless the left are seeing as most of them never serve.

we have outposts which need more troops and we need more troops for those more out of reach patrols .
Maybe if the left had a brain they would realise that electing the American idol with no experience costs more lives
