you guys are amazing.

take your head out of your diaper...
Obama could have pulled the US troops out of Afghanistan by now. All
it takes is an order to Sec Def Gates.
You mean, he really didn't mean it when he was running for POTUS?? Oh
my, hope I still get my free car and oil;)

Please show me where Obama said he'd give you a free car and oil.
Another right wing fallacy.
Obama didn't say it.. It was a sarcastic remark based loosely on the
rantings of some of the Obama supporters during the runup to the
election... Geeze...

Well, with some of the lies the conservatives have told lately, I just
assumed that was another one that got believed.

Yeah right.. only lies from the right.
We are obviously out or Iraq, Gitmo is closed, we are out of
Afghanistan, dems are reaching across the isle, there is no end of life
panels, the check is in the mail, and I promise I will pull out...
Pffffttttt...


Um, Scotty, he's still on the job, and hasn't completed everything yet.


He has completed spending more money in 100 days than Bush did in 4 years.


Brian Williams even commented on the deficit tonight.

That is bad news.

immediate surrender and appeasement of the taliban.


I do not believe you have any idea why the US was in Iraq or Afghanistan
or why we are still in either country. Nor do I believe that you have
any idea why Obama has continued 90% of Bush's foreign policies.


it's interesting watching the clueless sputter around like a beheaded
cockroach, thinking themselves alive and conscious all the while
they're ignorant and brain dead. they have their little mantra. they
have their little world. and nothing can penetrate or enlighten

interesting phenomenon.


you take pride in your ignorance or is it just a hobby?
You are too much fun to play with. I guess you could call it a sport.-


chuckle watching you roll around in your ignorance is kind of like
watching a 3 legged pig in a pen.


the amusement value alone is worth it.


When someone asks you a question you can't answer the question, why? Is
it because you do not have a grasp of the subject matter or is there
some other reason?-


you're not asking a question. you're making a statement that you put a
question mark at the end of. nothing can penetrate the dense material
that you call a 'brain' and others call a lump of rotten protein
that's never been used.

Whooooosh.


Sucking on the gov teat when it's offered gets the same taxpayer milk
as when you demand it.
And it's good to be honest about it.
Of course if you want to take the side that you just did it help the
economy, that works too.
That's the Obama side.
Your choice.

The Lt Colonel has been sucking on that Govt teat for over 40 years. He
doesn't want anyone else competing for a sip...especially those brown &
black people.

What difference does either question make?

Obama has had plenty of time to pull out of Afghanistan, and Iraq for
that matter.

Why are we still in Afghanistan. What does Obama hope to get out of
our involvement there?

disrupting the ability of the taliban to conduct state sponsored
terrorism. i realize that, to you folks in the 'neville chamberlain
fan club', that's a horrible thought. but to those of us who were in
NY after 9/11, it's kind of important

What state sponsored terrorism did the Taliban conduct? They've not
attacked us.
--



ever hear of 9/11? you guys keep saying the taliban is like the girl
scouts. when i point out the date of 9/11

i never hear from you again. whatsamatter? dont remember that day?


The Taliban did not attack us on 9/11.

A while back, the liberals were blaming Saudia Arabia and Bush for
9/11. Now you're using it as a rationale for staying in Afghanistan.
Y'all need to make up your minds.


Why, when you really have no moral core or strong loyalties, it's easy
to sway your opinion with the wind...

Bush got us in there. We're there. We could have just left
(cut-and-run, some people would say) when Obama took office, but how
smart would that be?

You don't really have a point, do you?
But he indicated to his followers that he would get out... close Gitmo,
have open meetings, reach over the isle... pffffttttt.. The fact is, he
said he was gonna' do it. Half of the country admitted they knew he
wouldn't, the rest just missed the boat...

I didn't know his time was up.


The first two (he would get out [Iraq and Afghanistan] and close Gitmo)
were promised in the first hundred days, the second two [have open
meetings, reach over the isle] were promised during his whole
administration... His time was up on the first two a few months back,
the second, when he started having secret meetings and censoring
information about his Czars and nominees... Fact is, it was bull****,
designed to get him elected. He never meant it, just said it... Hey,
could JPS be Oba.... uh, forget it...

Things change when you're handed what Bush handed him.


So, what you are saying is Obama was completely ignorant of what was
going on when he was running for POTUS? Or was he just lying?

Things change. I know, I know, reverse harryanism!


This excuse of "things change" is bogus and you know it.. The middle
east was no different the day after the election than is was during the
campaign, same with Gitmo, Afghanistan etc... Either he was dumb as a
box of rocks and talking out of his ass cause he didn't have a clue, or
he was lying...

Yes, Gene, he does! Remember conservative = good, liberal = evil. That's
the republican mantra!!!


Loogy, that's not even cute any more.


It never was cute. It does show reverse harryanism, though.
Why are we in Afghanistan? If we're there simply because Bush got us
there, then our reason for being there is pretty stupid.

If there is another reason, what is it?
--
John H

Uh, no. Sometimes it takes time to clean ****. That's what Bush left us
in Afghanistan.


Again, how come Obama didn't know it was fubar in Afg..? Was he
uninformed, or just lying when he said he would pull us out in the first
100 days, same question for Gitmo.. I will wait for the answer to this
before I move on...

What the hell. You suck on the government teat, and you never got shot at

were the lucky ones who got to live. I have two friends. One still has a

there. You worthless piece of Canadian government company ****head. No
