@nudist1033 My time in Iraq....I saw a grand total of....10, 10 foriegn militaries there. And I had been all over that country....most of those foreign forces were not even combat arms...but were quartermasters, cooks, mechanics....Though I will give it to the British, Mongolian, and the German forces, they sent combat arms...

I cant stand the sound of his voice. Hes driven this country into the ground and will continue to do so until he is impeached or his term runs out. God bless America, and pass the amunition. Were gonna need it when 250,000 screaming gooks hop off a boat in san francisco and Florida and start sweeping the nation collecting on Obamas debt.

at 0:32......"and most importantly, unlike Vietnam, the American people were viciously attacked from Afghanistan......."

Except the UNITED STATES PROPER wasn't attacked by ANY country in Southeast Asia between 1965-1975 (so that sentence doesn't even have enough merit to have been uttered at all).

at 0:18......"unlike Vietnam we are joined by a broad coalition of 43 nations......."

Really?

How many of them are sending in troops and how many troops are each of those countries sending?

Will the other 43 nations COMBINED be sending in even 25,000 troops?

Hey Obama, our puppet government in kabul is run by the kurds, the minority there in Afghanistan. Are you smart enough to know that or are you lying yet again. Obviously the people there are not satisfied so they are fighting us.

We did have support in Vietnam, in the beginning of it as a matter of fact from other countries.

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.
