I see a communist muslim from Indonesia feeding American kids into an Islamic meat grinder for his personal political agenda. Not national Security.

When he addressed the people at Fort Hood after the massacre, he gave a “shout out”. That display, a complete lack of respect, told me all I need to know.

It would be irresponsible for me not to tell my son what I see, and keep Obamas paws off of him. My son agrees with me even though he probably would have voted for Obama if he had the chance.

I sincerely believe our greatest threat, at this moment, is sitting in the White house. I dont want him any where near my son.

I suppose you can see a communist if you want. But there is no evidence at all that Obama is a Muslim. There is no evidence at all that he is Indonesian (genetically he clearly isn't). Your conflation of the two indicates the feeding of a personal prejudice.

Obama has not said anything about Islam that George W. Bush didn't say. Obama didn't start the conflict in Afghanistan; he is continuing a war that George W. Bush began in response to the Taliban's sheltering of Osama bin Laden. It is an American war, and he is continuing it because the current consensus of our civilian leadership and the military is that it is in our national security interests to do so. To imply otherwise is a lie.

I fought in a similar type of guerrilla war, a much more intense meat grinder (though certainly less of a grinder than the trenches of yore). Many people will say that such wars are fought in pursuit of fundamentally unattainable objectives. If one believes that, that is a valid reason for choosing not to serve. Making up lies about the current President and the genesis of said war are not.
