Obama has Only Spoken with Commander USFOR-A Once
This is certainly a unique interpetation of "wartime presidency." What does it say about your Commander-in-Chief when he's spoken with David Letterman more than his key guy in Afghanistan?
The military general credited for capturing Saddam Hussein and killing the leader of al-Qaeda in Iraq says he has only spoken to President Obama once since taking command of Afghanistan.
Ive talked to the president, since Ive been here, once on a VTC [video teleconferece], General Stanley McChrystal told CBS reporter David Martin in a television interview that aired Sunday.
Youve talked to him once in 70 days? Mr. Martin followed up.
That is correct, the general replied.

ouch. Ouch. ouch. ONCE???
But he’s met with ACORN about every week.
He hasn’t talked to me either.
This guy must be afraid of guns...and victory.

So, how many times has Barry talked to the head of the SEIU?
Interferes with his golf game.
I wonder how his statement will affect his career? BHO isn’t one to take lightly to being publicly embarrassed.
President METROSEXUAL PANTYWAIST feels threatened to be in the same room with a REAL MAN.
God help us.
But why should — or SHOULD — He?

Obama Could Pull Some Troops Out of Afghanistan
First Read: “Turning to Afghanistan, the news over the weekend that Colin Powell was among those Obama was seeking advice about Afghanistan didn’t get the attention it deserved. This could be the best hint yet that the president is rethinking the strategy to the point that not only are more troops NOT going to be sent, but we could see a re-deployment of some troops OUT of Afghanistan proper. By the way, the president is getting personal with his outreach on this issue, as he called John McCain over the weekend in what was described as a brief chat with the president making his case for deliberation.”
McChrystal isn’t one of the cool celebs with a tv show where Hussein can play back tapes of himself as the crowd cheers when he walks out on stage.
Hussein’s war is against the AMERICAN people!
Sure someone should ask Gibby that question they will probably deflect he has met with SECDEF and JCS blah, Blah Blah....
Obama is destroying this country welcome to chaos.
These pictures are brought to you by the First Amendment (while it lasts).
Just out of curiosity: How frequently did Bush talk to his commanders?
From Audacity of Hope: ‘I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.’
Getting the Olympics for Chicago seems to be more important than winning a war and/or our troops dying.
I hate this man.
I'd saved it, but lost it.....
