Do you think he really cares about America? Do you think he thinks of himself as an American, or as a ‘citizen of the world’?
Not saying you’re wrong, but I haven’t seen this reported anywhere else-not on Drudge. Watching Hannity, haven’t seen a mention of this.
I hope the Republic survives this clown.
It’s looking touch and go at this point. And we’re only 9 months in! 1,212 days to go!
Prayers for your brother.
The 18 months my son was in Iraq seemed a whole lot longer. The next 1,212 days will seem an eternity.
They're doing whatever the hell they want to do, either because they are that arrogant and tone-deaf, or because they're after as much "change" as they can get while they can get it.
I am just sick this POS is CiC! Should never have happened,but here we are.
ping!

Ammo Sales Spike Continues Months After Obama Elected
Thursday, September 24, 2009
NEW ORLEANS — Bullet-makers are working around the clock, seven days a week, and still can’t keep up with the nation’s demand for ammunition.
Shooting ranges, gun dealers and bullet manufacturers say they have never seen such shortages. Bullets, especially for handguns, have been scarce for months because gun enthusiasts are stocking up on ammo, in part because they fear President Barack Obama and the Democratic-controlled Congress will pass antigun legislation — even though nothing specific has been proposed and the president last month signed a law allowing people to carry loaded guns in national parks.
Gun sales spiked when it became clear Obama would be elected a year ago and purchases continued to rise in his first few months of office. The FBI’s National Instant Criminal Background Check System reported that 6.1 million background checks for gun sales were issued from January to May, an increase of 25.6 percent from the same period the year before.
“That is going to cause an upswing in ammunition sales,” said Larry Keane, senior vice president of the National Shooting Sports Foundation, a trade association representing about 5,000 members. “Without bullets a gun is just a paper weight.”
“gun enthusiasts are stocking up on ammo”
Gun enthusiasts. Yes.
I just got back from the area, and agree w/ the Peters.
I frankly have no qualms with a withdrawal from Afghanistan. Who wants them there under Obama and his rules of engagement anyways?
So it just sounded good for 0bama to campaign for POTUS on this? He is such a jackass.
It is blatently obvious he has not a clue what he is doing.
Pull them all out from everywhere. I don’t want him they’re CIC. He has but one interest and it is himself.
Thanks very, very much for the ping to this one, Velveeta.
Obama has yet to define U.S. objectives in AfghanistanAs the Obama administration and Congress begin a heated debate about how many more American troops to send to Afghanistan, military observers, soldiers on the ground there and some top Pentagon officials are warning that dispatching even tens of thousands more soldiers and Marines might not ensure success.

As a general,McChrystal should know how to protect his
troops and kill insurgents!!!
Did McChrystal set the ROE or did O’Bammy ?
Seems to me that O’Bammy hired a “yes man”...
That was an inexcusable attack on a principled man, LLS. Bush is doing EXACTLY what Ronald Reagan would have done, and would have been praised here for it.
The blame Bush knee jerk reaction from some around here is ridiculous.
I hate to say this but I agree with the idea to pull our troops out of both Iraq and Afghanistan. When we transitioned our government from an agrressive force to eradicate terrorists and Al Queda to one of appeasement we put the lives of our brave young men and women in dire jeopardy. If we are not going to support them then bring them home and we will have to finish the job when Milquetoast-in-Chief is no longer in office.
