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.

Playing golf isn't bad.

Playing golf while US soldiers die, and refusing to decide to either
support them or pull out while more soldiers die is... criminal.

Obama isn't "refusing to decide," **** for brains. He's in the process
of deciding. I agree this is a different process than the last POTUS
used. Bush did what he was told.

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???


A decision is better than no decision.

How many more will die before Obama figures out how to put himself in
the best political light.

Correct. And, a well-thought through decision is significantly better than
one that isn't.

We've got plenty of recent experience with ill-conceived decisions, like not
focusing on Afganistan and invading Iraq for no good reason. If only we had
some non-political decisions from the Bush administration on just those
issues (not to mention the countless others) that put the country first. If
only....

How many more will die before Obama figures out how to put himself in
the best political light.


So, in your view no matter what Obama decides, it's purely going to be a
political decision, thus he's unpatriotic. That's where you're headed right?

Do you not remember the minority media during the Bush admin. Just

saying clearly "I will listen to my generals in the field" during the

important than Scooter Libby forgetting a date.


I'll tell you a double standard. John claims that anything that

No double standard there. *That's exactly what the liberals were

And yes, he
IS listening to his generals. He met for 25 minutes recently regarding
how best to move forward.


Wow... a whole 25 minutes? *It took him longer than that to clean his

Surely those 8 lives are worth more than 25 minutes. *Stop making

They are no better or worse than the other 4000+ who have died. At
three minutes each it would come to about 1700 hours.

According to the libs, those others died on Bush's watch, but he can
no longer do anything about it. These new ones are dieing on BO's
watch. While he plays golf and... does nothing.

CORRECTION

Make that 200. I can't imagine where the other figure came from. A
month's worth at 50 hours a week.

What gets me is the 3000 killed on 911 were blamed only on Bush when
it's obvious most of the planning and execution was started during the
Clinton years. Now the Dems insist that everything happening now is all
on Bush, it's that old double standard again...
