.....saying hell approve an upcoming request only if the forces fit into a strategy to beat back al-Qaida and protect the United States. Huh? WTF does he think more troops are need for? Didn't he listen to the commanders.

Didn't he listen to the commanders. In his limited mind, he is the only commander.

We just picked up some terrorists IN NYC who had attended camp in Afghanistan. Obama still doesn’t get it.

What he is doing is ascribing nefarious motives to those commanders. The recent stories about Pentagon unhappiness with this dumb cluck are only going to increase. This guy is one dumb butt.

‘68,000 U.S. troops by years end’
And throw in the contractors there as well. Afghanistan doesn’t need more troops, but a strategy.

When considering the BIG picture, Obama is truly ignorant. When it comes to domestic and foreign policy...he knows EXACTLY what he wants to do. None of it is good for Americans.

You know, I seem to remember, not too long ago, maybe during the campaign that Obummer talked about the need to WIN in Afgan and that Iraq was a distraction.
Now, I guess that the Afgan’s go under the bus, which is a shame, as it will rebound on us down the road.
Just remember you fools that voted for this idiot:
“Hope and Change”!

This guy is one dumb butt. Nope, a well laid out plan to destroy the United States of America.
Our worst enemy is leader of our country.

Why wouldn’t he be skeptical? After all, he has NO military experience, No command or executive experience [the only thing he’s run in his life is his mouth - and then only if the teleprompter is working], no foreign policy experience, or for that matter, vision. All he has is ego, an inability to listen to anyone not buying “the program”, the guile of a street hustler, and a spine composed of overcooked vermicelli.

General Obama not getting things done. I guess Pelosi told him to get out.
To: randomhero97
It isn’t skepticism, it is traitorism. If not that, it is downright ignorance.
Guys and Gals are dying while the Communist CIC is fiddling.

I’m no military strategist but generals McCrystal and Petraeus seem to have come up with a strategy they need more troops for. Just my thought on it.
