Live Thread: Barack Obama Afghan Speech 8 p.m. EST - "Hello I Must Be Going"
Tuesday, December 1, 2009 | Kristinn

Posted on 12/01/2009 3:54:38 PM PST by kristinn

Live from New York...it's Barack Obama!

On the banks of the Hudson River at West Point, Obama will give his military strategy for Afghanistan, based on the tactical genius of Capt. Spaulding, aka Groucho Marx:

Hello, I Must Be Going

Oh dear, he is coming, At last he's here.

(Spaulding) Hello, I must be going, I cannot stay, I came to say, I must be going. I'm glad I came, but just the same I must be going. La La.

(Mrs. Rittenhouse) For my sake you must stay. If you should go away, You'd spoil this party I am throwing.

(Spaulding) I'll stay a week or two, I'll stay the summer thru, But I am telling you, I must be going.

(All) Before you go, Will you oblige us, And tell us of your deeds so glowing?

(Spaulding) I'll do anything you say, In fact I'll even stay!

(All) Good!

(Spaulding) But I must be going.

This is all about Obama , Mark Levin says. Its not about Afghanistan..

Of course.

He is trying to sound presidential. Have you seen his recent poll numbers? They've been tanking.

Its the GAY WAY to say Tally-Baan!! This is the Jerk that traveled to POOK-is-TON in 1981 when it was Illegal for U.S. Citizens to go there in the first place, but then We are quite sure that the KENYAN BORN Village IDIOT that was raised an Indonesian Citizen and MUSLIM and educated there as a MUSLIM, went there to POKE-IS-TON to ALLAH KNOWS WHAT TO DO, Much like when he went to KENYA to Campaign for a fellow MUSLIM and Cousin in the Hopes of Conquering The Christian Country for a 100% Forced Conversion to ISLAM and SHRIA LAW Illegally as a U.S. SENATOR which is strictly forbidden by OUR AMERICAN LAWS!! The Cadets look really disgusted as they sit there listening to the Moronic Rants of this Boy-Child.......8-)

It is easy. It’s all about him.
Sounds more like a withdrawal plan to me.
Gets that “worst economic crisis since the Depression” in.
Praising his own “supposed” good deeds. Pass the barf bag.

Someone should count up the “I”’s. He’s said about 20 in the last minute. It’s ridiculous. NARCISSIST.

NOw he is just lieig about hhis positions concerning “ his review.

This is a surge to “come home”. Of 30,000 troops when he was asked for 40,000.

He is undermining the troops in Iraq with his speech.This is a political speech, not a speech which even begins to move the troops towards victory.

He is moving to lead the troops to loss.

This speech is posturing for the left, it has nothing to do with military victory.

I wish those wonderful Cadets could get up and walk out...or boo...or turn their backs to him.

That would be good. If, in addition, they demanded that he bring the troops home, perhaps they could stop this war.

Yep, its all the GOP’s fault. Don’t ya know, those 9/11 hijackers they were all a bunch of Republicans, and the GOP attacked the USS Cole too. Yeah, HE visits military caskets, and laughs about it after wards.
