Screw Obama. I don’t believe for a heartbeat that he gives a d*mn about the troops, he probably hates them and all the military (it doesn’t help that he doesn’t have what it takes to be them). Anything he’s doing, there are political polls behind it. My brother is in Iraq again, no leave this time (fortunately only a couple-3 months left—I’m praying hard) and I can hear in his voice the total lack of morale, which wouldn’t be confined to him-he’s one of the least whiniest people in the world. If it’s that bad there, my heart bleeds for the troops in Afghanistan.

Well, the main thing that occurred to me was that, if the Taliban smell weakness, if they think running up U.S. casualties is a way to get to Obama, they'll go crazy.

The second thing that occurred to me was that the U.S. Army in Vietnam had good morale all through Tet, up until "Landslide Lynt'n" made his "I quit" speech and threw in the towel. The minute he announced he would countenance capitulation, Army morale and discipline went to hell and drug use blossomed. "Hooches" were unheard-of in 1967, but common in 1969.

If he gave a hoot, he and James Carville of CNN wouldn’t have demanded a runoff election. Now attacks will increase, more people will be killed, beaten and have fingers cut off, and be intimidated. But hey, that’s the chicago way.

He doesn’t give a damn about the troops. He hates them like all Democrat politicians do. The responses in this article from this administration only validate it.
