How does the LRA affect our national interest, enough for obamma to send troops? Seems that the Syrian people need our help more? And then we need to mention the Iranian people need our help also. Shall I go on?

“Now we are helping Muslims kill people.”

Didn’t we do that in Kosovo?

The LRA is kind of a goofy Protestant Christian group, fighting a purely internal war in Uganda.

This is None of Our Business.

A bad move. There are trouble spots in most of the world. We should not walk out of our way to step into every sh!t pile out there.

“....Obama, take out all the little guys he set up who are getting too comfy and then consolidating power under Obama.”

Sounds like a good idea. Obama can move to Africa and become a tin pot dictator there,instead of here...lol! I fear he won’t go for that though...he wants to rule the whole world with a marxist fist.

The piece of crap has now gotten us involved in an Uganadan civil war, which has been going on for decades, can you believe it?

The forces will provide information and advise and assist "select partner nation forces," Obama explains. The troops will not fight except in self-defense.

Isn't that how Vietnam got started?

We are still in Iraq and Afghanistan, so that's two. Then he got us into Libya and a secret war in Yemen. That's three and four. So this would be war #5.

Not counting the war he's trying to start with Mexico. And maybe Iran.
