Obama tells another lie, gee what a surprise.
You've been President a year, Barry, quit whining, man up and start making decisions.
You get him, Rummy.
White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs explained Wednesday that Obama was referring to requests that came in during 2008, and suggested Rumsfeld was on thin ice with his criticism.
“I will let Secretary Rumsfeld explain ... whether he thinks that the effort in Afghanistan was sufficiently resourced during his tenure as secretary of defense,” he said..”
LOL, GIbbs, you DOOFUS! So, if the totus was referring to Afghan troop decisions made in 2008, then you just threw SecDef GATES under the bus? D’OH!
Folks, this WH is being occupied by dumb and dumber- you pick.
OK, then let’s hear from Gates?
Now that Gates is joined at the hip with Zer0, didn’t he just diss his own man???
Interesting to notice that Obozo doesn’t even mention that killing or capturing Bin Laden is an objective of his war strategy in Afghanistan.
From his campaign to get elected: As recently as October 7, 2008 in a presidential debate, Mr Obama said: “We will kill bin Laden. We will crush al-Qaeda. That has to be our biggest national security priority.”
Now that he’s got the job, I suppose its best to keep the expectations low so that its not so obvious that he failed. Kind of like Saving or Creating Jobs. What a lying jack off.
Gibbs’s claiming that this was actually done (or not) in ‘08 speaks poorly, then, to Obama’s choosing to retain SecDef. Gates, doesn’t it?
These people just don’t know how to a) tell the truth or b) accept grownup responsibility.
Not to worry. The AP will put 11 fact checkers on this immediately.
So kind- Sorry for the double post.
