To paraphrase the first lady's pre-election sentiments:
"This is the first time in my adult life that I have ever been embarrassed to have this clown as president."

He is doing everything he can do to trivialize the office of president and to ruin this country.
His constant displays of disrespect for the military is outrageous.
Also, has anyone compared the number of gaffs he's made in less than one year compared to...say, Bush's 8 years?
(I think he's already surpassed Bush.)

Well he did go to Dover AFB at 3AM in the morning with his camera crew to pay tribute to our fallen Heroes.

Meantime he has left our troops to hang out to dry while he still waits to make a
decision on troop reinforcements. Great for morale and shows more weakness to
those who want to destroy us.

Did you ever stop and think how pathetic whining about how our troops are being "hung out to dry" might just be a bit ironic?

Hell, they've been there for 8 FREAKING YEARS ALREADY, and under Obama troops levels have gone up!

And now he's let them "hang out to dry"??? This makes no sense.

Why are you trying to undermine the mission?

Hmmm, more troops = more wounded...that might just tell you why the Administration is carefully weighing the options.

Your wrong Spence, under Bush bringing in more troops to Iraq, resulted in less casualties. Obamas problem is he has no plan.

Ya, I've had 2 nephews serve in both Afghanistan and Iraq with one still
fighting in Kabul, and I'm trying to undermine the mission ?
That is quite an accusation.

My question to you Spence is, what is the mission????

Obama said the war against alqaeda should have been fought in Afghanistan
and now when the rubber meets the road, things get hot,
we just finish October with the most fatalities in any month, and he can't make a decision.

So what is his mission????

Wasn't it in August he was told by his general that they needed more troops?
Now it's November and he still hasn't acted.

So what is the Obama mission ?????
