Fierce Afghan Battle Claims Lives of Eight U.S. Soldiers

Obama gets a thrill when an infidel dies, or else he would send re-enforcements that they are begging for.

Soldiers are dying at a higher rate then ever due to his don't-hurt-the-muslims-regulations and their commander-in-chief is out partying with the G-20, Copenhagen and at washington. How do you feel?

Yeah, but..the pipelines..the permanent bases..noble cause..blah,blah.

Eight more Americans are dead today, but I guess Jones, is right, no need to worry. They're thnking aabout what to do next..........

How do I feel? After screaming bloody murder all during the campaign that we should have been in Afghanistan instead of Iraq and now Obama dithers and can't make up his mind what to do while our soldiers are dying, but has plenty of time to horse around all the time instead of doing his job. And I see we are back to calling them insurgents again. Why not use the correct term "terrorists?"

Afghanistan is known as the graveyard of empires.

Alexander the great in the 4th century B.C. could not conquer it.

The British in the 1800's could not conquer it.

The Russians - 1979 to 1989 could not conquer it - withdrew forces.

Why do these idiots think we can conquer it ??????

All this happened on the same day:

Barack and Michelle Obama are, among other things, husband and wife. And tonight, they celebrated their 17th anniversary, their first in the White House. The president and first lady went out.

Eight American soldiers and two Afghan policemen were killed, with many injured. It was the worst attack on Nato forces in 14 months, and one of the deadliest battles of the eight-year war. The insurgents seized at least 20 Afghan policemen whose fate last night remained unclear.

Whne we only had special forces running the show there this type of thing didn't happen and it was the bad guys that were getting offed.Everything they didi acomplish was ruined when Obama lied about only sending in mayby 1 brigade if elected and istead as soon as he was in sent thousands.It scattered the taliban and other insurgents into the larger citite;s making it virtually impossible to locate them.This is not the place for regular troops.They are not trained to fight this type of a conflict plain and simple and now even that has all changed by sending in so many troops like Obamam did.Best thing is to get out of there completely and cut our losses.We cannot win any war there now,there's simply no way it's gonna happenRight now Iran is looming in the future as the next big thing that we are gonna end up in.ALl thw winds are shifting towards that direction and with russia bowing out of it this time as they said they wouldit's not going to take very much more before we do go in there.We need our people out of Afghanasatn and back home for now
