This man is just Awful...

This has been the Kenya Muslim’s plan all along. Increase troop strength in Afghanistan. Claim that Al Qaeda is the enemy, not the Taliban. Declare Al Qaeda defeated and claim victory. Withdraw troops and install the Taliban as at least a partial solution in a coalition government.

Plant food is the only role for Taliban.

Draw up another Article of Impeachment.

For introduction in the House Judiciary Committee by the Republic Majority, in January 2011.

Disgusting! Why are we there if we’re going to give the Taliban a seat at the table. And where are the feminists on this little deal? Huh?

[gaijin]

Right...they’re going to compromise with people who THROW ACID on girls who study or dress immodestly...

IS THERE NO BOTTOM TO HIS NAIVETE...??

[dajeeps]

It’s conventional wisdom that when one finds themself stuck in a real deep hole, it’s a good idea to stop digging.

But, Obama and his ilk have no wisdom, and I think they are heading toward making it all the way to China. They must be the saddest and most idiotic bunch of all time.

[autumnraine]

How is this not officially a surrender?

[truthandlife]

He truly is delusional....

This is the equivalent of declaring Methodists to be part of the American political fabric. It is true. Methodists did not rise to power and destroy the society but the analogy still holds.

It is the task of the Afghan elders to bring the Taliban to heel. It is the task of the allied forces to make the place safe so the elders can gain control and act.

I heard tonight that the Afghan government was outlawing the use of amonium nitrate fertilizer. Obviously its because its being used in bombs but I think outlawing its use is going to backfire because it will make it even harder to farm.

If the farmers can’t farm, who are they going to turn to for a source of income?

[onona]

WTF_ Over ?

[expatpat]

First step toward partition? There is a large chasm between the primitive tribesmen in the ‘countryside’ and the ‘civilized’ part in the North.

[La Lydia]

And which legitimate role would that be? Beating women and burning their schools down? Blowing up priceless, historic Buddhist carvings? Stoning people to death? Beheading their political enemies? The bad judgment of this administration is criminal and dangerous. How can we even be thinking of treating these creatures like they’re “legitimate”?

[OldDeckHand]

We have supported ruthless dictators, thugs and other reprobates privately, but this might be the first time in the modern era where an American president has called for reconciliation with a regime that has engaged in such blatant violations of human rights. Not only can women not vote in a Taliban government, but they can't read either. Where is NOW and all the other feminists in the world standing up for women who actually need some support, and not just to murder their unborn children.

[kristinn]

Obama ally Jodie Evans met with the Taliban and then relayed messages from Afghanistan to Obama last fall.

[Shqipo]

Well, at least now I won't be caught totally off-guard when a State dinner for Mullah Omar is held at the White House.

[R0CK3T]

If this were 1944 he’d be saying what...that the NAZI’s would need to be part of the new Germany?

What a FREAKING - COMPLETE - FOOL!!

[ncfool]

This man Obummer is one of them. He will have us under Sharia Law.

We better wake up before its to late.

Join the Brown revolution.
