Adding 35,000 Troops! This Is Bush All Over Again! There's No End To This!

[paulbutkiss]

finish the cunts!.

[RedPiII]

And this guy won the nobel peace prize...

No wonder America gets attacked so often.

[FlowerClown]

Let's ask the Russians how to "Win" in Afghanistan.

Raise taxes and starting the draft will end these wars.

No pain no gain just more of the same.

[revenge53142]

When our CIA supported the Taliban covertly in the 80's their strategy was to draw the Soviets into a Nam style quagmire to help bleed out their resources and help us win the cold war.

Some say it worked well and helped support our goals.

How arrogant have we become that we are going down the same road.

We didn't win the Cold War, we just held out longer than the Soviets...

Now the empire is starting to come apart.

[cyber9sockpuppet]

agreed. the COLD WAR wasn't a war. I served in NATO during the 80's. it was all BS to increase the arms, so gov't could make money off of weapons manufacturers. the Soviets tried to fight the Taliban and we gave the terrorists Stinger missiles. most Americans are too fucking stupid to know this .

[revenge53142]

Well at least someone agrees with me.

I swear when I try explaining to people we are getting screwed over by war corporatist in government they always treat me like I'm a crazy conspiracy nut.

I can't imagine what Obama is going to say in his speech that will change the fact we cannot benefit from having a large military footprint in this region.

I wonder when Matthew Hoh is going to run for public office.

[huskerbird1]

amen bigc

[waveoflight]

Payment would only come in the form of the arrest of President Bush.

[matsutakneatche]

I wish i had an infinite line of credit like obama.

[CillaF1]

Like the US?

[mikheii]

CHANGE!

[RadarKat73080]

This is gonna be Obama's Bay of Pigs!

[dyl0n]

Left/right dem/rep same corporate agenda.

[MikeRoch6969]

NOOO!! NOT left/right, the democrats are not the left, their collective agenda is on the right, there is just a progressive minority within the dems (denis kusinitch)

[josepv3]

I voted for Obama but I am not satisfied so far. endless war, unemployment rate through the roof, and more money being made and given to the rich. since the economy was in Bush's hand for 8 yrs, he gets most of the blame. But if there are no solutions by the end of Obama's term, I'm going to be piss

[Mahoivlich]

no one learned a bloody thing from nam

[LoryLandskipper]

yes! this is our vietnam! FUCK

[bigc028282]

Where are all the HOPE AND CHANGE shilltards on this?

HOPE in one hand, BUSH in the other.

Oh yeah, nice EMAILS THAT PROVE THE IMF/UN "CLIMATE CHANGE" SCAM.

[LoryLandskipper]

Where are all the "Obama's change will ruin us" shills?

Why has the right tried SO HARD to paint Obama as an extreme leftist when all his actions point to moderate?!

[bigc028282]

"moderate" shit, he's just BUSH 2.The plan was PULL OUT!

How's the CHANGE working for our 2nd Vietnam? How's it working for you? If you have invested with the Republicons, you should be doing GREAT. NOW we have the EMAILS that have EXPOSED THE IMF/UN "CLIMATE CHANGE" SCAM.

If you old enough, you can remember when enforced corporate legislation's cleaned up our rivers and lakes. We didn't need the UN/IMF/Chicago "carbon stock market" to do it either.

HOPE in one hand, BUSH in the other.

[minasoliman]

Obama's plan was to pull out of Iraq, but he promised the exact opposite for Afghanistan very clearly since he was a candidate. Read the transcript on the first Obama/McCain debate. He clearly said he will send more troops to Afghanistan.

[realbleamer]

to deligitmize the President. the right wing doesn't care about reality. they'll say Obama is a liberal even when he is really a moderate.

[BeortheMad]

I'm wondering when the Russians are going to make their Rambo movies, they should have more than enough material by now.

[lennyneroau]

No surrpise he was going to add more troops. Business as usual. Did you really expect obama to go against the grain and actually try to stop the war? lol. That takes strength and brains. Obama is all talk.

[TheElefaunt]

war or healthcare?

let's make him choose.

[ReliableInsider]

Should we spend our money killing tens of thousands of innocent people or saving lives?

Decisions, decisions.

[TheElefaunt]

if he doesn't pull out by 2012,

finally someone that wants peace and isn't just talk like Dennis Kucinich,Ralph Nader,and Ron Paul can shine.

this war will never is this guy an idiot

people hate us for good reason,

we need to lend hands not chop them off and then no one can hate us.

[VeohBlows]

Paul and nader are both talk concerning the War's, Kucinich has been working for the end much longer than both. Check the floor speeches and resolutions Congressman Kucinich has done. Then check Paul's.

[TheElefaunt]

To say Paul is all talk about the war is beyond ridiculous,

his voting is completely clear of voting for funding or getting into a war,

his whole political belief system is non intervention staying out of conflicts,

but it's obvious you are un-informed on this

given you even said nader is all talk given the main reason he runs is to stay out of wars and end wars,

do you even have any idea who these men are or their history.

obviously not.

[VeohBlows]

Your stupit. Kucinich calls for impeachment on the floor of Congress. What did Paul say about that? He could have co-sponsered the bill, did he? Time and time again Kucinich brings things to the floor for vote! Remember the vote to end war? guess who, no not Nader, no not Paul(silence actually), WAS KUCINICH. Know it, check it, believe it.

[TheElefaunt]

I am stupid you mean,

you can't spell and I take political science and u.s. geo,

i think i know a little more about these guys then you,

Dennis is great,but Paul considered the war un-constitutional

and for that very reason would pull out as soon as elected

instead of pressing a bill to say he could

ask Dennis he loves Paul they have worked together

on quite a few issues.

even Kucinich would argue against you on this,ha.

[TheElefaunt]

plus how is nader going to vote when he isn't even on the floor

it just shows how little you know about these guys

have you read any of nader's or paul's books,

they are the most consistent men in politics

and both are consistent on what they think of this war and war in general.

[VeohBlows]

Shows how wise I am. Your original comment was Kucinich is all talk no substance. The others are substance. Do you see what I am getting at? All talk is just wrong. He is all work. So you think cause you are still in school, still learning you know more? You were about 10 years old when I started waking up sonny.

[highcrimes105]

Veohblows is right, I think you need to study some more, stop just taking the information they hand you, dig. Dumbass.

[chewbaca1989]

This War should have been a sacrifice instead of buying houses and suvs.

[danbowski40]

So many sheep drank the kool-aid of "Hope and Change" and all you got was a darker skinned Bush on steroids.

[chewbaca1989]

Obama adviser is Zbigniew Brzezinski.

Book: The Grand Chessboard

"How America 'manages' Eurasia is critical. A power that dominates Eurasia would control two of the world's three most advanced and economically productive regions. A mere glance at the map also suggests that control over Eurasia would almost automatically entail Africa's subordination.

Obama puppet.

[ZedAlfa273]

What better way for Obama to dignify and show respect for having been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize than to expand the 'war' in Afghanistan by putting an additional 35,000 service personnel in harms way.

A 'war' that has gone on for 8 years with absolutely nothing to show for it.

This so-called 'war' in Afghanistan was'nt ever really meant to be won.

All it's turned out to be was what it was always intended to be....a spend fest for the Military Industrial Complex & their contractor friends.

[elephantinpajamas]

1,000 cuts: afghanistan, pakistan, iraq, iran, somalia, yemen, ETC. we are bleeding out. let's see how smart obama is. Gd help us.

[xxashyy]

"We need a different strategy" The US occupation needs to GET the hell out of there and bring our troops home. NOW. Were not wanted over there.

[harlem0987]

He's not. He's gonna be just like bush and have us in another fuck up war for years to come. I'm not voting anymore unless I see some improyments from obama and so far I'm not seeing it. I wouldn't be surprise if unemployment goes up 20.8 percent down the road.

[hstone39]

it's ashame how we really don't have a president to stand up for the people.

[jayrod59]

Hey, I've got an idea. Why don't we just bring our troops home and spend all that money back here in the good ole' U.S.

[sireel]

I'm with you, jayrod59. Why recreate Vietnam. There has to be a NWO agenda behind all of this because it just makes no sense otherwise

[bigb47]

An NWO, CIA, opium, oil pipeline, and military base agenda. The CIA needs the illegal opium revenue to fund its secret missions that it doesn't want to have to ask the gov't for money for because it doesn't want congress to know what it's up to. For anyone who doubts this, research the dramatic rise in opium levels since the US invasion. Actually, research everything I just said.

[harlem0987]

I've had it up to hear of all these dixiecrats and repping the pubic off fucks coming in office and fuckin up this country. People are out of work and he wants to add more troops. I see why Malcolm x was against voting. NOTHING CHANGES IN THIS COUNTRY!!!

[sx200ser]

just come home, not just Afghanistan come home from everywhere. want to help 3rd world countries bomb them with food aid, restore American hope freedom and prosperity around the world, if you need weapons/defense join NATO then we sell you our own weapons at auction. win/win more money saved and gained by us, we kinda need it. a country in debt leads to people in debt and vice versa. and lets pay more taxes, inflation is just another kind of tax

[Pvtjamesryan2]

The American people don't have a say so. They never had a say so.

I remember that Anti-War march during the Bush Administration. The politicians forget...the majority of the American people want the troops home.

How hard is this to comprehend?

[daguy1234]

Hello, people!! Obama said he'd end the war in IRAQ! Not AFGHANISTAN! I remember him saying "move the troops in Iraq to Afghanistan"

[harlem0987]

You right daguy1234. He's gonna end the war in Iraq and have the troops in afghanistan. One way or another, "IT'S COMPLETE BULLSHIT." We not moving in the right direction.

[NuLLx42]

In my subscriptions feed the title was cut short and it said: "Adding 35,000 Troops! This Is Bu..."

I lol'd hard.
