Do you really think it's fair to compare Obama with some idiot who gave
up golf "in solidarity" with dying soldiers?

Yes I do. He gave it up direcly because of the criticism.

Call it what you will. I don't care one way or the other as I said.

What's fair is fair.

I'll say it again. Golf is a decadent sport and any Prez who's out
there all smilin' and jiving with his buddies while our soldiers are
dying can't get enough criticism.
Looks like Obama has had no reporter yet film him and ask him about
the guys getting blown away while he's on the links.
Why is that?
This damn "sport" should off-limits for any Prez.
Hell, even playing poker while drinking scotch looks better.
Or bowling with a beer on the scorecard.
Golf is just plain silly, and makes anybody look silly.
There, I said it. Just what I think.

The need isn't to hurry. The need is to get the decision right. Any
troop increases won't be needed until the spring, as the winter weather
in Afghanistan pretty much shuts the Taliban down.

Tell that to the families of the dead soldiers. Besides, what better
time to hit them than when they are inactive?


You want more dead soldiers and grieving families because of a rushed
decision???



Right-wing warmongers don't give a damn about casualties. All they care
about is the projection of military force, no matter how ill-advised or
inappropriate. Further, what the righties want is for Obama to find
himself in the same morass Bush himself into. These right-wing scumbags
have an agenda, but it isn't "let's do what is good for america."


All of which is pretty shocking. It's a scary day when Newt is the voice of
reason in the party.

Newt has turned into an appeaser.

As for myself, I want less casualties brought about by a decision by
the potus. That doesn't seem to be something that BO can
accomplish... too busy playing golf and campaigning.

Heh - oh yeah - always an excuse. *"The Vietcong won't attack - it's
TET".

Seem like I heard that one before - twice.

Heh.. they are hardened fighters and terrorists, but some cold weather
shuts them down. Uh-huh.

Good thing we got a mini ice age on the way... that'll exterminate all
the terrorist!

I sincerely hope the Republican party can figure out where they should go.
If it's more toward a slightly right of center position, it'll survive. If
it continues toward the extreme right, it will end up in an unrecoverable
minority position.

I think you mean fewer causualties. We all want that. I take that on faith.
As to the rest, it sounds like a right-wing rant.

It's totally fair. That guy was an idiot (or so I'm told).

That's unfair to sock puppets everywhere. This one is devoid of any
