The anti-war left is turning on the president it helped put into office, launching a counteroffensive against President Obama's decision to escalate the war in Afghanistan.
Activist groups are joining liberal members of Congress in condemning the president's expected announcement on Tuesday that he will order roughly 30,000 more troops to the war zone as part of an overhauled strategy to finish what President Bush started eight years ago. Some are urging him not to go through with it -- though the strategy apparently is set in stone, with Obama having issued his final orders to his generals Sunday evening.
"I simply can't believe you're about to do what they say you are going to do," documentary filmmaker Michael Moore said in an open letter to Obama posted on his Web site. Moore warned that Obama would tarnish his legacy, turn away his supporters and effectively crown himself the new "war president" by escalating the war in Afghanistan.
"With just one speech tomorrow night you will turn a multitude of young people who were the backbone of your campaign into disillusioned cynics," Moore wrote. "Your potential decision to expand the war ... will do more to set your legacy in stone than any of the great things you've said and done in your first year.
"For the sake of your presidency, hope, and the future of our nation, stop. For God's sake, stop," Moore wrote.

Marxists always eat their young. Psychopathic marxists are even hungrier and eat everyone’s young.
Obama is getting what he deserves for being a marxist, an appeaser, a coward, incompetent and a traitor.
Bon Appetite!
I’ve got this picture in my mind of Obama calling Dubya in private and asking him how he dealt with all this hatred? “Yo, bro Prez, can ya give da man some tips?”
Good heavens, I'll say! Remember the day after Bush was inaugurated in 2001, the homeless population quadrupled!
They will be the useless idiots to the comrades in Washington once the Marxists take over and take all their money.
What? You Kidding?? What about the “Beer Summit”????/sarc
yep, it’s the message to Moore bro ....
You know this song was the all time favorite song of our
Marines as they went in to ‘clean house’ in Phantom Fury

Secret Service probes Eminem 'Bush threat'
Rapper wishes 'president dead' in reported lyrics to new song 'We as Americans'
December 06, 2003
The Secret Service is trying to determine if any action needs to be taken regarding a lyric from shock rapper Eminem that may be a threat to President Bush.
Eminem has the president in his sights in his new song ''We as Americans,'' apparently wishing he were dead.
According to the Drudge Report, the nation's top-selling rapper rants:
"F--k money. I don't rap for dead presidents. I'd rather see the president dead. It's never been said, but I set precedents and the standards and they can't stand it. ... We as Americans. Us as a citizen. We've got to protect ourselves ..."
A Secret Service probe is routine when something that could be construed as a threat to the president is brought to agents' attention, reports CNN.
''We are aware of the lyric and are in the process of determining what action, if any, will be taken,'' Secret Service spokesman John Gill told the news network.
No stranger to controversy, the Detroit rapper has come under fire for a recently uncovered tape from 1993 in which he uses racial slurs against black women. Eminem dismisses the tape as "foolishness," just an angry reaction to being dumped by his black girlfriend.
Meanwhile, Eminem's "Lose Yourself" has been nominated for song and record of the year by the 46th annual Grammy Awards to be presented Feb. 8 in Los Angeles.
As the feature track in the film "8 Mile," the song has already pulled down an Oscar. It's also up for best rap song and song written for a motion picture, television or other visual media.
The song's breakthrough success at the Oscars is credited for boosting rap music for the first time into contention for one of the four general-category Grammy Awards that are considered the top honors in the U.S. music business.

If you've ever wondered why rap music and gangland clothing, extreme "body modification," every type of sexual experience, drug abuse and other harmful behaviors have taken such a powerful hold on today's young people – and at progressively younger and younger ages – December's Whistleblower has the answers you've never read anywhere else.

it was the beat and the lyrics to that particular song
it applied to the situation there perfectly
LOL!!!!!!!
turn away his supporters and effectively crown himself the new "war president" by escalating the war in Afghanistan.
I love it! Poor Oba Mao. He was hoping they could ram the so-called "healthcare" bill through before he had to do something about Afghanistan (and in so doing infuriate his base), and before 2010, which is, let's see.... oh yeah, an election year.
I understand (I think). :)
It was one of the reasons democrats had to win eventually to put up or shut up. Now they are all mad that Obama cant keep his campaign BS. It was all so easy last year. Remember last December when Democrats wanted Bush to resign so Obama could start fixing things early?
That’s funny. He’ll probably get Laura Bush on line and Laura will say “you making an omelet?”
O: no, I need da tips to keep the show a float
B: look, don’t jingle my jive with dat talk, you be the fool.
O: I need help cuz’ my butt be on de line and ah’ promise ah’ won’t bad-ass moud yo’ husband any mo’e.
B:Yo’ butt be on de line and yo’ rapin’ likes some yellow spineless chicken dog. ‘S coo’, bro. Smarten down befo’e ah’ get Mitchell t’wacky ya’ silly and mosey on down to yo’ senses. Are we honkyfools?
O: So’ry I’ll call back lata’ and...
B: Don’t boda’ (click)
Good! Laura like the “I speak jive” lady in Airplane.
Exactly what I was thinking!
My step mother-in-law and I had a discussion about this before the election. She SWORE that Obama would get us out of both Iraq and Afghanistan. I said, are you nuts? No he won’t! He doesn’t know HOW to 1, and 2 he isn’t anti war! He never was, you just read that into his “hope change” BS. You are buying it hook line and sinker, and a year after he is elected we will still be in both places. Four years after the election we will still be in both places and your Messiah will be tossed out on his arse.
Yep, so far I am batting 1000 on that one. But I am not rubbing it in her Berkley nose in it however. That would be too mean.
