It pretty much sums up his whole arrogant, self-absorbed attitude which will keep him from ever being a true leader.
In fact, Zer0’s attitude is so bad that even if he went through a miraculous ideological conversion to conservatism, I wouldn’t trust him to run an ice cream truck, such is his rotten, me, me, me way of looking at things.

Everyone talk to is alarmed and infuriated by Zero. He’s in some disconnect, no relation to the real world, Americans dying. Who cares, they’re mere fodder for the ‘greater good’, i.e., Obama’s big plan. Some say they’re in a state of disbelief and refuse to listen or watch the news, but most change the subject to Sarah. God bless her.

Obama is clueless. This has been a holding action while we played out the main event in Iraq. The Taliban/Al Queda have been able to fill in the vacumn because of the internal politics of Afghanistan... the Pashtun have pretty much ruled the place for the last 4 generations and have been rallying the Afghanie “hillbillies” to resist the foreigners for compensation. The McKrystal strategy will now turn this around if supported. If Obama tries something else he doesn’t understand the situation. Chicago politics won’t work there... they already have corruption down to a full time occupation.
To: hershey
You seem to surround yourself with conservatives and mature people.
Have a look at Byron York’s analysis of the recent Gallup poll yesterday. Zippy still gets 91% support from blacks and 70% support from “young people.”
Obama seems to be more concerned with what his ever-narrowing base thinks than American society as a whole.

He is a liar.McChrystal asked for the troops 4 months ago.
40,000 troops x 4 months=160,000 troop shortfall.
Plus, this boob is still making it "all about him"--by holding off a week before announcing the move.
Wake up, USA. You have a childish liar in the White House.

This idiot is so out of here in 2012.

Barry will need the GOP to pass any war bill because the Dems won't back it. By refusing to vote(abstaining)or voting “present” the onus wold be on the them.

The approach will be simple - vote for our health care plan or we basically abandon the troops that are now in Afghanistan.

“Does this idiot have any idea how many people he sh!t on ...”
He also just “sh!t” on his official white house chef, in that he brought in an outside chef to prepare the food for the State Dinner.

A sincere apology from the bamster to Afganistan should be a fitting end to the war ,,,, right ,,, along with 150 billion to rebuild the damage we inflicted on the rugged mountian sides .

Obama is a moral and physical coward.I suspect he will put just enough forces in to look good but not enough to tick off his Muslim brothers.
