This is part due to the months of delay while Obama was dithering on sending in more troops!

8 US Military contractors or US State Department workers and not Soldiers? In any case, RIP.

Looks like the headline edit is wrong. According to the article they are civilians. RIP

Prayers for the families of these brave heroes, and for the soldiers who served with them. Prayers for our nation that we are able to survive the next three years.

Indeed.... just more results from dithering.

But, there is an upside... Obama was able to pretend that he was the boss and that he knew better than even the Generals fighting the war.

The dithering also gave him time to work on his Obamacare, golf score, stealing a war chest for dem elections, world traveling and his weekly Wednesday night parties.... orgies or whatever they are.

Look folks, Obama worked hard to get this job, please don’t take the fun out of it for him by holding him responsible for anything. That wouldn’t be fair and it might even be racist.

I’m sorry this took place. I’m sure the Left is praying to Allah that there were Halliburton people involved.

My thoughts and prayers go out to the family and friends of those lost. They were involved in trying to support U.S. interests, our interests in that foreign nation. I appreciate their efforts very much.

Euphemism for CIA?

I’m sure Hussein will react by waggling his finger at the American public and saying that we can’t act or form an opinion on anything “until all the facts are in”. They can spend a trillion dollars based on bogus studies and preconceived notions that they were taught in college, but they can’t act against any enemy until we have met a ridiculous standard of courtroom level proof that is unachievable out in the real world where (gasp) things can be a little messy.

No doubt he will respond coolly, calmly, and in measured, reassuring tones to this latest massacre.

And then go snorkling.

Sure, we are killng our own in more ways than one——but let’s continue sending more billions a day to the main source of terror funding: Saudi Arabia.

Let’s not jump to any conclusions. The bomber could have been a Japanese tourist upset at the lack of good quality toilet paper.

Suicide bomber attacks CIA base in Afghanistan, killing at least 8 Americans

A suicide bomber blew himself up Wednesday inside an Afghan military base used by the CIA, killing at least eight Americans in what is believed to be the deadliest single attack on U.S. intelligence personnel in the eight-year-long war, U.S. officials said.
