BuhBye now.. Don't let the door hit you.. uhh..

And we’ll be out of Kosovo by Christmas 1995.

[Sacajaweau]

Karzai just said 5 years...and right after that, Obama said 2 or 3 years. Now we’re at 2017???

Nuclear meltdown at DU and Kos.

[NormsRevenge]

Job finished!

President Barack Obama vowed Tuesday to "finish the job" in Afghanistan and promised to unveil a decision soon on sending tens of thousands more US troops to battle Al-Qaeda and the Taliban. Duration: 00: 36(AFPTV/POOL)

"...the costly and unpopular eight-year war..."

Is this news or editorializing?
Maybe Rooters ain't a real news orgainzation!

Another Prime Time news event to Blame Bush once again

[MinorityRepublican]

2017? That’s fine with me. As long as we don’t end up cut and run in the short term.

[BlessedBeGod]

LOL! So soon?

[sergeantdave]

Guess soros and obuma need 8 more years to control the opium trade. Be less time consuming to grow the stuff in michelle’s Honkeyhouse garden.

MMMM.MMMMMM. MMMMMM. Poppy pie.

2017? Lessee, that would be a year after Barry's second term, if he gets one. So, if it doesn't happen it'll be someone else's fault, right Barry?

This guy must think we're all stupid. 'Course, he's probably right about his own base.

[Bernard]

So now the bold prediction is that we will be out of Afganistan the year after his second term (if there is one) runs out. I thought he was not going to leave it to his successor to deal with. Oooops.

The next bold prediction will have to be about when we will be out of Debtsylvania. I wonder if that year will start with a 2?

[rbg81]

Oh, that’s just brilliant. Now the Taliban know exactly how long they have to wait us out. And the rank and file Afghanis know they can’t oount on us for the long term. Let me think, where will they throw their support....hmmm.....?? [/s]

[Kimberly GG]

I won’t be WATCHING!

Please, boycott ALL ObamaTV...you can get updates immediately following.

[Nachum]

The list, ping

[Burkean]

That’ll be well into a second term for whichever Republican is elected in the next election.

[marron]

The message to the Talibs ought to be, we can do this til the cows come home. We can do this and more without breathing hard.

Give up, or prepare to spend the rest of your lives hiding from us. However short that might be.

In the meantime, I’m glad he is giving Petraeus and McChrystal what they need to do their jobs.

[Brilliant]

So the Afghan War will last longer than the Iraq War, which the libs characterized as “Bush’s endless war.”

[tobyhill]

Obama now has to admit that the Taliban is the enemy otherwise why stay? For the past 7 years the Rats have been claiming that ONLY Al-Qaeda was the enemy with minimal linkage to the Taliban.

[MajorThomas]

America dies with a CIC that acts this way. Why even have a well trained military force, if you are going to support them. I don't think anyone wants another Viet Nam, but if you are not willing to win from the start, you will never win, and you will have another Viet Nam.

My oh my. Are we looking at WWIII?

Are we looking at another depression that will make us pray for the Great Depression? How can small people be expected to make the large decisions that will save our Country on all fronts, if they want to spend, spend, spend (to pay off their nepotistic friends for getting elected..., under the guise of Saving the Country... and in the end, we all cry because our children are crying?

God Save Us.
