I would have been back sooner, but I was a bit upset after being called a “noob” for posting the truth, and being told for the umpteenth time that I am “ignorant” of the facts.
It is amazing to me how many people came late to these problems and now claim to be so worldly effing wise about it all.
McChrystal took over in JUNE. It has been a veritable slaughterhouse ever since. Something is rotten in Denmark....
Oh. Wait a minute.....
That is literally TRUE, isn’t it? They are still fumigating the place.

The difference is YOU GET IT and can see the long term big picture on this subject and how Obama is risking the lives of our military for his own whims or ignorance now. Evidenced by his ROE’s.

Some people just want to label you without digging into the facts and that is unfortunate. Sooner or later, the truth always prevails.

God Bless our troops on THEIR mission!

I know Mesta. And the ROE’s started turning on our troops in 2006 thanks to John Murtha’s “Our troops are murderers” speech. The leadership then should have told he and his ilk to pound sand but instead they put a number of our Marines through hell for the last few years. (Haditha rings a bell...) And then they changed the ROE’s in a more ‘friendly’ direction (at the expense of our troops). The result was troops walking on egg shells lest they get a court-martial.

All that is now PALE in comparison to Obama’s Fairy Tale world of warfare.

What is so friggin hard with committing to winning a war you engage in and backing OUR troops 110%? If you aren't willing to do this you have no business being in it to begin with.

I like what BP2 said at #67. We need to continue to speak out plainly on this topic. Obama is now backed into an uncomfortable corner on all of this and the whole world is watching.

I will always support our Troops and THEIR mission as long as they are in Afghanistan. However, THEIR mission (to win) is the polar opposite of what the TOTUS is willing to do or bolster. He hasn't served a day in his life in the military and Bill Ayer’s is as close to warfare as he's ever stepped.
