Stenny,

I don't remember any lefties ever asking for more troops to go anywhere to defend the USA since Vietnam. You can't count Lieberman since he is an independent and left your party because you and they were so anti Iraq / Afghanistan War No lefty will be doing so now either with your Marxist Party infested with and controlled by Anti War, Anti American, Surrender Monkeys.

Who are you trying to kid? We will have to watch what you do very carefully indeed.

As usual, the liberals try to use their Swiss Army excuse, their get out of jail Bush card, because they can't deal with the ramifications of their own big mouths. Blaming Bush gets more pathetic by the minute. They were blathering interminably about Afghanistan being the war we need to win, but now can't seem to muster the courage to do it because the ghosts of another war they caused the U.S. to lose are haunting them.


The problem for Obama is that he can't just commit a militaratus interruptus, after he, and all of the liberal leaders made such a big deal about Afghanistan being the war we HAVE to win.

I agree with them. We do have to win it. Of course, I felt we had to win in Irag too, and Vietnam for that matter. It is refreshing to hear liberals actually say we need to win a war. Of course, so far, all they have done is say it. Now, DO IT!

If Obama is queasy about 40,000 more troops, how will he feel about Pakistan falling to the Taliban, and Al Queda getting access to nukes? How will he decide what to do if that occurs, and a war is sparked with India, which will most assuredly follow? How will he feel once Pakistan falls to the radical Islamists, or Iran gets their nukes? It's not far off.

One thing is clear: Obama has to show the leadership in this situation, and stop whining about Karzai, Glenn Beck, or the Olympics voters. Stop trying to find excuses and LEAD! That's what he was elected to do! Give McCrystal the troops, put a thousand Predator Drones in the air, bomb the Taliban into the center of the earth, but win the damn war, and stop expecting someone else to step up and do the job.

The bottom line is that Obama CAN'T win all of the battles he's in. Wecome to terror dome. He's the president. He has to make a decision that will be either in the best interest of the country, or the best interest of his political future. If he doesn't have Solomon's wisdom, he better not try the "cut the baby in half" ploy. He'll end up serving no one, and make enemies all around, not to mention put this nation into grave danger.

The campaign is over, and Obama, and the Democrats aren't ready to govern.

Typical Liberal. Instead of paying attention to what they should be doing, like winning a war, they have to get their noses in places where it doesn't belong, like healthcare.

Hey......Stenny's like Bobama.....I'll tell you just what you want to hear.

B.O. can't find his a..s with both hands and using a mirror.

B.O. can't find his a..s with both hands.

That's alright Somber, as many times as I have disagreed with jrtoced and big fat, moderate......... I have also agreed with them too. Yeah, its surprising to us!

I want some one to ask Obama What his exit strategy is. The dems Badgered Bush about that and used it in the campaign all the time What is your exit strategy and exactly when are you pulling all of the troops out of both wars. what is your exit strategy Obama. Harder to answer then you thought isn't it. You are waisting billions a month, sound familiar?. Maybe you should apologize for trying to get Bush to expose security secrets to the enemy. What is your exit strategy Obama. If the press was doing there job he would be asked that question every day through Gibbs. What is Obamas brilliant solution. Just Blame Bush is the best he can do. Jerk!!!!And now he wants to tare the roof off the pentagon so the whole world can just look right in. This is not what an American President acts like. Something is very very wrong with this picture. What is your exit strategy President Obama?

FOX!

Get our military out of there--and then drop one of my partner's (Splash) favorite bombs and let it be done. They started it, let's finish it and go home.

He was to busy getting those bonus's ready. LOL

This commie president kept yapping how we were fighting the wrong war, never believing the American people would elect him. Now his mouth got him in the RIGHT WAR. Too bad too many American kids are going to get killed to back up his mouth. At least Bush listened to his generals about going into Afganistan to make a statement. We could put 200,000 troops in there and not stabilize the situation.

To everybody that posted: In you words or ideas, what is our main goal in Afghanistan? Kill the Taliban? Establish a Democracy? Find Osama Bin Laden?

Please respond what is a goal?

How about the goal of killing Obama (ooops) Osama, destroying Al-Q, defeating the Taliban, ans building a new, state-of-the-art military base there where we can monitor Iran and launch setees into the region as needed? Got a problem with any of that? Come on Libs, why not?
