A U.S. Army cadet reads a book entitled "Kill Bin Laden" as he waits with other cadets for U.S. President Barack Obama to deliver an address on U.S. policy and the war in Afghanistan at the U.S. Military Academy in West Point, New York December 1, 2009. Obama is expected to announce a plan to send 30,000 more U.S. troops to Afghanistan over six months in a bid to beat back the Taliban and bring a quicker end to a costly and unpopular eight-year war

(open link for picture)...look closely at this cadet's chest....see the Combat Infantryman's Badge?...see the Army Commendation Metal with device?...he's had prior service before West Point....he's actually fought...he's seen combat in the Infantry...think he gives a rat's ass what some effete community organizer thinks about military strategy?

[coconutt2000]

Well, it looks like he was reading it while “waiting” for Obama to show up and give his speech. The title is misleading.

Nope. Not one dang iota.

[Recovering Ex-hippie]

BTW...I heard the correct story is he was reading that BEFORE the speech. I really doubt he would have been that impolite, regardless of his feelings.

[Dilbert San Diego]

Well, that books sounds like good reading material.

And if our men ever come face to face with Bin Laden, Eric Holder will read him his Miranda rights.

[enduserindy]

I would like to know what liberals read while waiting on a Bush speech.

[ilgipper]

So now Reuter’s line is Afghanistan is ‘an 8 year old unpopular war’? I thought this was the central front on the war on terror. I f—ing hate the media.

[Red Steel]

I heard 2 hrs or more waiting for Obama.

[rcrngroup]

I just hope that 0bozo’s political commissars won’t put pressure on the brass to punish this cadet for reading during Zero’s speech and embarrassing the usurper commie pig 0bozo. What an asshole (0bozo that is)!!!

[wannabegeek]

as he waits with other cadets for BH0 to read TOTUS?

Did the cadet read the book while BH0 reading TOTUS?

[Red Steel]

As of last year, Afghanistan was ‘the good war’ according to those clowns.

[albie]

“I would like to know what liberals read while waiting on a Bush speech”.

...”It Takes a Village”. “I Have Two Mommies”. “New York Times”. “O” magazine.

This kid ROCKS! He will one H*LL of an Officer! I would follow this kid into a cannon if he asked me to(he looks like the type who will lead from the FRONT!)!

[FlingWingFlyer]

Anybody know where I can find a list of “popular” wars? I’m an old vet and I’ve never been able to find that list.

[Gay State Conservative]

A gutsy move by that cadet.However,I suspect that he/she just might have a serious disciplinary encounter very soon.

[STONEWALLS]

“This kid ROCKS! He will one H*LL of an Officer!”

....my thoughts too...a guy with prior enlisted service and combat experiance is way ahead of a kid that goes to West Point straight out of high school.

“I heard 2 hrs or more waiting for Obama.”

My friend’s grandson was there. They had to be in the auditorium, seated at 4PM, making it at least a five hour “tour of duty.” He told his family that their uniforms were incredibly hot.

We as Freepers need to find out what this kid’s name is and send him Christmas Cards in mass. THIS KID RULES!
