they wanted more troops , but the lack of new recruits (economic draft) they are making us young people hard to find jobs and to get to college so they want every 18+ to fight
sending more troops, doesn't make any difference. spending billions of dollars only damage US economy. thats exactly the begining of losing war, as it started with Russian at that time. Russians' economy got fucked by Afghan and then they started losing their morals and finally they got bad ass bleeding... now the history is repeating hoping the samething will happened to these white trashes... they kill innocent ppl out in those countries in the name of taliban and terrorist,....
lemnowa..you got that right...Obama cheated on his votes with Acorn just like Bush junior..also.ALL YOU PEOPLE, you wanna know whats really happening in our country and why we are feeling more and more like SLAVES WORKING FOR THE ELITE RICH..Go to YOUTUBE and and pull up "the ARRIVALS..1 thru 36..they are all about 5 to 10 minutes long..and youll see what the AGENDA for Americans and the WORLD COMMUNITY..and then forward the information to all you know IN THE WORLD..!!
lol hello everyone..what blows my mind is Obama if you notice in the newspaper addresses 4000 Cadets at West Point on the matter of the 30,000 extra being sent....i guess it was easier than ADDRESSING 4000 american civilians..i tell ya the fukkin propaganda presidents use to avoid the talking caring American people..cuz Obama knew his idea wouldnt fly with 4000 american civilians..he is no lees as bigg of a liar as the last 3 presidents..PEOPLE..WE ARE IN BIG TROUBLE AS AMERICANS..
1 trillion on Bush's war already, Obama to provide another 30 billion to support the Bush war machine, 1 trillion for corporate America and the private banks that rape the country, Afghan needs support and to be rebuilt... American's losing their homes, no healthcare, bankrupt, hungry, jobless, in a ton of debt, they're not the priority here. American's who voted for this puppet were so greatly fooled once again. He was even giving props to the corrupt UN and world bank, how fucked up is that?
well usa i hope your proud of your new fucken president OBAMA IS FOLLOWING AN AGENDA AND HE IS A FUCKEN PUPPET CONTROLLED BY SECRET SOCIETES AND IF YOU STILL BELIEVE THE BULLSHIT HE PROMISED THE AMERICANS WAKE THE FUCK UP all of you are fucken daydreaming in your little fantasy worlds because hes black and made history but the reality is HE IS FUCKEN LYING TO ALL OF US WAKE UP PPL AND TRY TO SEE THE BIGGER PICTURE BEHIND ALL THIS
hahaha and people always rips obama for favoring MUSLIMS? haha. shows you how much he gives a shit about them. he's just another puppet advancing the new christian crusade by the vatican. seems nobody likes the muslims. they like to blame them for a lot of things. things they have absolutely nothing to do with. didn't blackwater's ceo get busted for being a self-described "christian crusader given the task of cleansing the earth of muslims by GOD?" And WE pay for them to murder and rape muslims?
good answer. Hitler blamed the Jews, and we are blaming everything on the Moslems, who have not invaded and occupied the west, its called collective punishment. Obama is a puppet leader he gets his orders from the Jewish lobby, how many millions of dollars have been sent to Israel, he even drives a car called the Beast.
all of the whole fukkin world let this coward and infidel to his country.contribute more troops for mor money in his pocket and for the bilderbergers and Rothchilds of the world..WORLD YOU BETTER WAKE UP B 4 THERE IS NO INTERNET..WAKE UP BITCHES
This obama slave puppet has no choice but to kneel down to obey and suck his nazi warmonger redneck chickenhawk master, like a "good old" HOUSE NEGROE....aahahahahahaaaaa
More body bags coming home for Christmas...happy holyday all you american tools...hahahaha
THis is SO WRONG AMERICA we have no business being in Afghanistan stupid Fucking idiot obama who cares about the taliban we should be more concerend about our own soil.
When Pres. Obama was a Sen. he wanted to pull all the troops out of Iraq and Afghanistan. Now that he is Pres. he is sending troops to Iraq and Afghanistan. Is this his way of saying Pres. Bush and Mc Caine were right? I guess so.
Tawny you are so RIGHTON ! I love when people educate themselves on America and whats really happing and are not just feed crap on the NEWS you can help alot of others too Tawny just by telling them the realities of whats happing to America and how were screwing up the World praise on Girl.
War Made Easy: How Presidents & Pundits Keep Spinning Us to Death
watch?v=KN5vxOw9Elk
America needs to WAKE UP NOW!!
I am *Astounded* that the President mentions that this is not another Vietnam. *Vietnam Syndrome* the same *Rhetoric* used by Reagan and Bush 41, You see people, even President Obama has fallen into the clutches of the Military Industrial Complex.? We thought an African American elected President would change things but I guess NOT.
What "truther" stuff do you not believe specifically... There are many theories I personally don't fully buy into, but others are so blatantly obvious, once researched, you would be very hard pressed to arrive at a different conclusion. Such as Blackwater murdering civilians, and our government preventing the middle east governments (which we fought to put in place) from trying and punishing those individuals. This is one of many facts which I have been made aware of and see as truth.
The only reaslon I voted for him is because he said he would bring all the troops home in 11 months , now hes putting 30000 more in You are a Liar Obama I will never believe anything you say again . You are no different than any other politician.
Actually he orignally promised to begin evacuation IMMEDIATELY and later changed it to 11 months, that in itself being a lie which originally brought forth my scepticism of him (I also voted for the same reason, along with other standing points he has failed to follow through with, primarily the withdrawal of the Patriot Act, instead signing it's continuation through).
Obama is a fraud and he's no better than Bush was. Why is everybody still in love with this puppet? Cus he's black, speaks well, and lies like no other while looking like he's sincere and he cares? Ya, he cares so much that he's just decided to send 30,000 more people to a war that can't be won for a people that don't even want us there. How fucked up is that? Vote Fraud out of office! Vote Obama Fraud out!!!
"why is everybody still in love with this puppet"----I don't believe they are still in love with him. It's just another media spun illusion that B.O. is popular.
@dlucas90: You know sometimes with all the hype about this or that issue, even I forget how manipulative the media is, and you're right... The media loves him, and promotes him, and of course the media of today is just a propaganda machine that does not present the truth by being objective, unbiased, and telling all the facts. Thanks for the reminder. I do hope that more will wake up to the media Obama deception.
maddog: i love my guns. all of them. which is why i'm more concerned about getting struck by lightning 3 times in one day than i am about getting killed by so called terrorists. i fear my government much more than i fear a bunch of flunkies with ak47's halfway around the world.
This war monger is just getting his oil buddys rich! He owns stock in haloburton & the other corporations of the military/industrial complex! This thief promised to get us out of the wars within ONE YEAR! Lying bastard lied about EVERYTHING he promised!
its only iraq and afghanistan .... israel, pakistan or iran Don't put up with that shit and they would smash america if they tried to do all the offensive stuff they are doing in afghanistan and iraq.
I think obama did a good job because we cannot let them come home to kill us. we need to prevent them away. In order to do that we must go after them.
It's not about bringing down Obama. It's not even about being right or left wing. You've got to seriously take a look at what's going on right now. It's very important. History calls Afghanistan the "Graveyard of Empires" for a reason - and not because they're 'asking for it' or they're 'evil'. Google the reasons and look at it logically, not with left and right politics clouding the issue. If, then, you choose to put your support to anyone who would throw troops away, fine.
Obama is a LIAR...The US Gov't is filled with lies....When I grow up, I plan on joining the US Military...But I do not believe in the gov'ts actions...I do not think AMERICA has a ight to barge into ANY country they want..and just take over it like the DICTATORS we are.........When I join the army, and they ask me to go ff too war, ill GO....But ill be fighting for what I BELIEVE IN, and NOT AMERICAS WORLD DOMINATION......GOD BLESS THE US TROOPS........
hey the rich arabs are telling him who to send in..i didnt see any of the rich HIGHT PRICED CHARGING hehehSaudis or Obama sending any of his children in to battle..
not that i ever saw..lol..why why should the politicians lose their sons and daughters in a war when they can send other peoples sons and daughters...
If he had pulled all the troops out then the far right would be claiming he is weak on defense and soft on terrorism. If he had dramatically increased the troops without NATO support, then the left would claim he was unilateral and a warmonger. He inherited a bad situation that has been in limbo for 8 years. He finally is doing something. This war will come to a close in 3 years. We may leave a solid country able to stand on its on two feet, or may not. No one knows, just like Iraq.
Illegal aliens have never actually gotten in to planes, and killed anyone yet, so ..... unless you wanted that job selling fruit on the corner that the illegal alien took, let's just get this Al Queda thing outta the way, since it's been in the forefront of our lives the last 8 years. George Bush, btw, NEVER spoke as smooth as Barack. This guy, on almost every other front, is the total opposite of George Bush. He's undoing all the Bush mistakes, and that takes time.
He's undoing the mistakes by making the same mistakes over? Preposterous! That's like when they said they had to burn villages in Vietnam in order to save them!
We are spreading the war. The Iraq war is far from over, he replaced troops with contractors, and we still have permanent bases and "residual" forces. Afghanistan is a nation that has never had a stable central government, there is no training to be done. To think we can change these people into rejecting tribalism and embracing democracy is insane!
What does that matter? We went into Iraq with Coalition of the Willing! This is the same rhetoric we heard from the Bush admin.! There is less than 100 Al-Qaeda members in Afghanistan! We are destroying hashish farms of poor farmers that have nothing to do with taliban or al-qaeda! This nation has never had a central government, so for us to think we can force one on them is naive!
start pulling out in 2011...uhuh...lets see that happen we were supposed to pull out years ago and its still going. let them across seas fight their own civil wars. It is none of our business fighting for them in which they have been for hundreds of years. To me Obama looks just as bad as Bush right about now,if not worse. i don't know if anyone else is thinking that but that is my own opinion.
When did Bush ever say he was gonna pull troops out ? I don't think he ever did. The folks across the seas, as you put it, actually caused 9/11, so...... we're not fighting for them folks. We're fighting, to stand up with others, and end oppression, on peaceful people, caused by rogue radicals, that want to destroy white devils. I respectfully disagree with your opinion. Obama is NOTHING like Bush. He told us from the beginning we were going in to Afghanistan. Do I like war ? No. But no choice.
well i am American and for a minute i had hope. I hate war but Bush destablized the country, Obama's plan probably will not work but it is just wrong to destroy someone's house and say my bag, but i have better things to do then to clean up the mess I caused. If Bush had just attack the Taliban rather than run them out we would not be in this mess and they would know better not to protect a murderer next time.
LOl you can take that shit all the way back to Clinton. "If Bush". if Clinton had don't something other than over tax the hell out us then maybe none of this would have happen.
One thing I have learn over the years. You can't be a Democrat and have a back bone at the same time.
No McCrystal asked for 60k and made the bare minimum 40k. This is the right thing to do if we stay in there but honestly if we all left I would have no problem with that. Let those towel heads blow themselves up
Stop looking at the surface stuff and dig deeper. Who are we borrowing from everyday because of our massive debt? When you look at products in America, where are the goods made?
China, China, China.
Look at who Obama bowed to and that shows you who owns America. Saudi Arabia,Japan, and China.
What a fucking idiot. obama is a lying bastard...yet some of his supporters (cultists) wont criticize him for lying/breaking his promise/changing his mind WHATEVER YOU CALL IT.
I give up, go ahead, let him ruin YOUR life, you lowlife people. He will keep you down FOREVER so you keep voting for him.
If he made you "rich", you'd vote republican, since they are the party of the rich, right?
he said he would bring the troops home from Iraq and finish the mission in Afganistan. Where are you getting your info, or are you just a poor listener.
so true, I feel so sorry for the people down there,
what a nightmare.. and its just gonna get worst
they don't care about the citizens that are going to war or the people been
killed everyday down there. They just want their oils and land.
MONEY.
I wish someone would bomb the white house and stop these gangsters

I hate war but Bush destablized the country, Obama's plan probably will not work but it is just wrong to destroy someone's house and say my bag, but i have better things to do then to clean up the mess I caused. If Bush had just attack the Taliban rather than run them out we would not be in this mess and they would know better not to protect a murderer next time.

LOl you can take that shit all the way back to Clinton. "If Bush". if Clinton had don't something other than over tax the hell out us then maybe none of this would have happen.
One thing I have learn over the years. You can't be a Democrat and have a back bone at the same time.

I guess this is good even though it's half of what the commanders he appointed asked for
rngd311 2 years ago
False. The commanders I heard asked for at least 40,000.
This isn't good. The war should end.
ttzstewart 2 years ago
The commanders first request was 60k. Tyen he ask for at leat 40k, but Obama is just sending 30k over a long term. Not all at once.
Yes the war should end, but not till it is finished.
MrSTANDFORAMERICA 2 years ago
No McCrystal asked for 60k and made the bare minimum 40k. This is the right thing to do if we stay in there but honestly if we all left I would have no problem with that. Let those towel heads blow themselves up

Damn, I missed Obama reading the teleprompter, Israel approved speech written by an army of writers using buzzwords selected from focus groups?
DAMN IT!

The Jews only have a little bit of say in what's going on. The Saudis, Chinese, and Japanese control Obama and thus the White House.

Stop looking at the surface stuff and dig deeper. Who are we borrowing from everyday because of our massive debt? When you look at products in America, where are the goods made?
China, China, China.
Look at who Obama bowed to and that shows you who owns America. Saudi Arabia,Japan, and China.

I'd rather not get distracted by the bankers that stole our wealth.

"I will end the war in iraq"
"I will bring all troops home from Afghanistan"
What a fucking idiot. obama is a lying bastard...yet some of his supporters (cultists) wont criticize him for lying/breaking his promise/changing his mind WHATEVER YOU CALL IT.
I give up, go ahead, let him ruin YOUR life, you lowlife people. He will keep you down FOREVER so you keep voting for him.
If he made you "rich", you'd vote republican, since they are the party of the rich, right?
Use your fucking head
