The agreement says 2011 and his order is supposed to say only combat brigades. Units like advisors, special forces, and air units are not combat brigades. Obama may be so dishonest as to exclude U.S. Marines, who deploy as battalions and not as brigades. I don’t know the order of battle for divisions now, but in WW II a battalion was 1/6 the size of a brigade. He may be following the letter of the agreement, but in a way which affirms his popular political illusion, and depreciates those who sacrificed for victory.

It is wonderful that black children see a man who looks similar in the highest office in the land. The thought makes me smile inside. And I am glad for all blacks who thought this might never happen.

But I am SICK that a man was elected who is totally TOTALLY unqualified simply because he IS black (well, half if ya want to get specific)and the press and easily fooled PC crowd in Hollywood (the intellectually deprived) and elite liberals who FEEL every ones' pain as long as that person is poor or a democrat, just went bonkers....OVER the skin shade; and they ignored the quality of his ethics, morals, associations,experience and judgment.

They failed to save America from a man who could hurt us forever.
