Good point!

I’ve been wondering if the coup has happened and Obama on National Security issues has been told what is expected of him in no uncertain terms.

Hope its a big enough force

Trying to evacuate a surrounded area fighting your way in and out with just 2300 guys going to be pretty dicey

Just remember, fellow GI’s, ya’s git no ribbons to add to yo salad, no ‘I been there’ ribbons, and also, no REAL ‘decorations’, either, including if you end up ‘buying the farm’, while you do your assigned duties.

This is the official line from the head guy who sent you.

No boots on the ground, huh?

Kuwait is NOT northern Iraq.

When Boehner and Reid are on the side of Obama, there will be no need for declaration of War.
Funding is not being voted on for this "Not-A-War". It's only a War if the elected or MSM

decide to call it that.

Hypocrite traitors.

It's all about definitions of the spin.

well no boots on the ground so maybe they're wearing sandals.

Or maybe their only concern is protecting Kuwait and Saudi oil fields.
