THAT IS WHAT OUR TROOPS ARE HEARING


TROOPATHON ONLY 7 DAYS AWAY – CRUNCH TIME TO SUPPORT OUR TROOPS


MAF’s third annual Troopathon is now only ONE WEEK away, and we need your support more than ever! We just came back from a trip to Iraq last week, and the troops there are wondering if we have forgotten about them.  We cannot do that to the men and women of our military who are sacrificing everything to keep Americans free.

We need you to participate on July 1st in the historic event for our troops – an 8 hour telethon carried live on your computer screen from the Richard M. Nixon Presidential Library in California.

Unfortunate Revelation: Obama uninformed and unconcerned
with war effort in Afghanistan to defeat Islamic Terrorism

The startling and disturbing news that Afghanistan Commanding General Stanley McChrystal found President Obama uninformed and unconcerned about the war in Afghanistan has been front page news.  But what bothers us it that the media has ignored the most disturbing detail of the story.

General McChrystal got in trouble for voicing his frustrations and difficulties in working with Obama and his administration on the war in Afghanistan. Let’s not forget the most important detail was that McChrystal feels Obama and his people are checked out. They’re not paying attention to the war.

Ironically, Obama has turned to General David Petraeus to take his place.  This is the same General that was criticized for wanting a surge of troops in Iraq.  Democrat Senator Harry Reid even said the war in Iraq was lost, and he wanted American troops to withdraw as losers rather than follow the Petraeus strategy to win the war – which our military did brilliantly.


Obama opposed the Iraq war, claiming that Afghanistan was the real war.  Now, we hear from the top General that Obama was uninformed and disinterested.  Do you know how dispiriting this is to our troops in the field?  They are feeling abandoned by their own President.

Our troops are not getting the attention they deserve! There is a frustration that with all the domestic turmoil, the bailouts, Obama’s domestic agenda he keeps pushing, and the outrage at his handling of the BP oil spill, our troops are getting LOST in the tide of the news cycle!

We can’t let our troops be forgotten! We can’t let our troops down, and we can’t let General Petraeus down! Our troops need our support more than ever, as they are sacrificing so much for our freedom and safety.  We owe it to them to pay attention, and to support them!

Sorry, scrap that line the way it is written should read ...the entire amount invested by Petrobus is 224Bil through 2014-20

U.S. Government to Loan Brazil's Petrobras $10 Billion The U.S. government is preparing to provide up to $10 billion ($2 Bil?) in loans to finance the development of massive hydrocarbon reserves off Brazil’s coast thought to contain 80 billion barrels of high-quality crude, an amount that could lead to a six-fold increase in Brazil’s current proven reserves and transform that nation into one of the world’s 10 largest oil producers.--deeper offshore drilling than in the Gulf.

Sorry to muck up your article. Was trying to show the Pentagon is spending valuable think-tank time doing mineral investment studies in Afghanistan while in a war, as Obama sees investment in deep water drilling off Brazil, while trying to hold on to the moratorium of drilling in the Gulf.

We all knew BO would be this way. Our fight to defeat the left is our best way of supporting America’s war heroes. That might sound cheezy, but I think it’s McChrystal clear now.

No problem, thanks for the information.

It was a little cornfuzing what with all the Italians infiltrating your words!
