After 48 hours, first in Afghanistan and today in Iraq, Barry HUSSEIN Obama believes "the situation is precarious" and "more troops'" are needed in Afghanistan. That's it?! That's the great revelation? Judging from the slobbering media coverage, I would've thought Barry by now had already parted the Euphrates River, ended the war in both Afghanistan and Iraq and with a wave of his tobacco-stained hand, solved world hunger. But he's merely repeating past points made by both President Bush and Senator McCain. This from a politician who unceasingly badmouthed the war, voted against refunding the troops and claimed the Bush-ordered surge wouldn't work. Now he's pretending, presuming to know what's best for America, Afghanistan and Iraq.

This idiot--Barry HUSSEIN Obama--is dangerous. He'll kill Americans and their allies, abroad and domestically. He must not be allowed anywhere near a responsible position like the American presidency.

THIS IS SPAM!

i think he'll realize that he's a boob and doesn't know a damned thing

He isn't going to win so don't worry about it.

Only Beeg could criticize someone for saying the right things. Deny it all you want, but it is Obama's plan to withdraw troops from Iraq, and send more troops to Afghanistan.


Brian Williams, NBC Nightly News: "The videotape clip of your comment about being in Iraq 100 years if need be, of course, is still kicking around. You've since given a speech to more closely define your position on Iraq. But given your support for the surge and where you believe this nation is in Iraq today, where do you see it going and will your support be there for however many U.S. troops are required?"

McCain: "Yes. And the fact is we are winning in Iraq. And the fact is if we had done what Sen. Obama had wanted we would have faced defeat and we'd have faced chaos, increased Iranian influence in the region, more conflicts there and the United States sooner or later would have had to come back with greater sacrifice. We are winning in Iraq, those are the facts on the ground."

July 6, 2008: "Barack Obama and John McCain are proposing sharply different strategies to seize the initiative from a resurgent Taliban and Al Qaeda in Afghanistan, positions that underscore the two leading presidential candidates' competing visions of how to wage the war on terrorism. If elected, Obama says, he would immediately withdraw thousands of ground troops from Iraq and send them to Afghanistan to help undermanned US forces defeat the Taliban and Al Qaeda.

However, McCain, says Iraq, not Afghanistan, is the "central front" in the war on terrorism. He believes that NATO and Pakistan must do more in Afghanistan until the United States can draw down its commitment in Iraq - a position which tracks Bush administration strategy.

What do the experts say: Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki supports US presidential candidate Barack Obama's plan to withdraw US troops from Iraq within 16 months. When asked in and interview with SPIEGEL when he thinks US troops should leave Iraq, Maliki responded "as soon as possible, as far as we are concerned." He then continued: "US presidential candidate Barack Obama talks about 16 months. That, we think, would be the right timeframe for a withdrawal, with the possibility of slight changes."

-U.S. Secretary of Defense Robert Gates, and Admiral Michael Mullen said Wednesday that more troops are needed in Afghanistan. They said, however, that troop levels in Iraq must be reduced before they could dedicate more forces there.

-After intense U.S. assaults, al-Qaeda may be considering shifting focus to its original home base in Afghanistan, where American casualties are running higher than in Iraq, the top U.S. commander in Iraq said Saturday. "We do think that there is some assessment ongoing as to the continued viability of al-Qaeda's fight in Iraq," Gen. David Petraeus told The Associated Press in an interview at his office at the U.S. Embassy.


Conclusion: the Iraqi Prime Minister, the Secretary of Defense, the Pentagon, and the military, all agree with Obama. Beeg and McCain are left in his dust.

that he can hit the outside jump shot





that makes him a shoe in and you heard it here first...in Canada...where most of us could give a Rat's a s s

well I 'travlled' to this post and concluded after 3 minutes of reading this drivel that you're a complete tool!

There is ample evidence to suggest taht Al Queda is retracting from Iraq and placing more emphasis on Afghanistan - the recent spat of attacks clearly shows that Afghanistan is all but forgotten to Al Queda leadership. It is imperative to increase troop presence in Afghanistan as not only have al queda regrouped, but their technology and fighting tactics have improved dramatically - time is therefore of the essence and the only way to qwell this lot is through force.

You're a real dummy, it's sad you don't even realize this!

It took you three minutes to read the post above? Hey wait a minute. I know it's summer but should twelve-year-olds be posting on adult forums?

You're missing the point genius. The issue is not deploying more troops to Afghanistan. President Bush already took that action weeks ago. Senator McCain concurred with the deployment. The issue is a hypocritical political hack named Barry HUSSEIN Obama who opposed the additional troops sent to Afghanistan, opposed the surge in Iraq, opposed and badmouthed the War on Terror and now, for political gain, he's claiming more troops are necessary. Weeks ago, he was unequivocally against the War on Terror in all aspects. Now, he wants additional troops in Afghanistan? Can Americans afford to trust this hypocrite? Of course not.

apparently u never heard the asian proverb that "an empty wagon makes the most noise"

oh he was was he?
spoken like a real intellectual



fckin hell do you ever read what you write and then actually think about what you just wrote?

But, from your words, you both are in total agreement, and I credit you with putting it into context.

BO is an empty wagon.

You're probably one of the most unintelligent board members.

and another great intelligent post from our hero Attention: REGISTER / LOGIN to view the image!

Now, THIS IS SPAM ^^^

but typical of our hero Attention: REGISTER / LOGIN to view the image!

and that kind of blind rhetoric brought us to where we are now


the US would have had better results if they had dropped billions of dollars from planes on top of Afghanistan and Iraq


and it would have been way cheaper

The press is not happy with him right now for not having an open question conference with them.

Funny how my intelligence, among libs, always decreases just as my understanding and clear articulation of hack politicians like Barry HUSSEIN Obama increases.

McCain himself said that Iraq is the central front in the war on terror, and that sending more troops to Afghanistan was foolhardy. McCain's own words, yet Beeg still doesn't believe it.

You're going to have to do better than merely proclaim one of my lines null and void. Explain, if you can, why my text perplexed you.

What I don't believe is how libs are shamelessly lining up behind Barry HUSSEIN Obama and blindly supporting a policy (more troops in Afghanistan) he embezzled from President Bush. It's infuriating because until four days ago when Barry arrived in Afghanistan, he opposed the war in Iraq, opposed the war in Afghanistan, opposed the Bush-ordered surge and voted against refunding the troops. Equally infuriating, these traditional appeasers and ossified antiwar believers are now sanctimoniously castigating anyone--McCain, who actually voted for the war, is a prime target--who takes issue with Barry's outrageous political maneuver.

Bush has only started planning to send more troops to Afghanistan for less than a month!

WASHINGTON (AP) July 2, 2008 — Grappling with a record death toll in an overshadowed war, President Bush promised Wednesday to send more U.S. troops into Afghanistan by year's end. He conceded that June was a "tough month" in the nearly seven-year-old war.

"I don't know where bin Laden is. I have no idea and really don't care. It's not that important. It's not our priority."
- G.W. Bush, 3/13/02

Spin your way out of these, Beeg:

2002: McCain said capturing Osama Bin Laden Isn’t “‘That Important.” [CBS, "Face the Nation," 3/2/02]

2002: While talking to troops headed to Afghanistan in 2002, McCain said, “‘Next up Baghdad!’ [Associated Press, 1/9/02]
2003: McCain said, “… in the long term, we may muddle through in Afghanistan.” [John McCain, 11/5/03]

You're the one who's claiming that it was Bush and McCain's idea to send more troops to Afghanistan. Through their own words, I'm proving otherwise. They've never really cared about Afghanistan until this month!

And you don't think that capturing Osama Bin Laden is a big deal? The mastermind of the largest terror attacks ever against the US isn't a big deal?

The mindset of Beeg, Bush and McCain is quite disturbing. Imagine - Bin Laden can murder thousands of Americans, and these people think that the correct response is to go after someone else.

Seems BO is slightly ahead in "general" polls (including many who are merely yappers & will not vote)

While JM is now ahead in "likely voter" polls (the term describes itself)
- and of course is the only poll type of significance
