...and that son of a bitch obama is off on holiday again.

Not only does he squander the treasury, he spends the lives of our soldiers without a thought.

I’d like to find out what nation gave these cavemen the clearly uber-sophisticated surface to air missile that suddenly was able to take out one of our Chinooks.

Those birds have some fairly sophisticated countermeasures, so the Taliban either needed a sophisticated weapon, or they needed a level of infiltration into our Special Operations command that would let them know exactly where this Chinook was getting ready to land so they could hit it with an RPG as it was coming down and unable to peel away. That second option is inconceivable, so I’m assuming some nation sold the Talibs some nice hardware.

Afghan military officials put the death toll at 38, including 31 Americans and seven Afghan commandos.

31 God fearing, young American soldiers. What a shame. God bless them and their families.

Monday morning, there won't be one word about this in the msm. Not one word.

Right on the heels of the downgrade.

Hey, at least we know the “Commander-in-Chief” will not allow these unimportant bits of news that bother the “bitter clingers” to interfere with his hip-hop party at the White House. He’ll just jump around dancing barefoot in the Rose Garden.

I wonder which Obammie the Commie enjoys more, destroying America or symbolically crapping all over the White House as Slick Willy did.

The media fought hard for the ability to photograph the coffins at Dover Air Force Base. Will they publish this scene of these unfortunate men or will they be ignored for the sake of Obama?

God bless the brave fighting to keep us safe.

Just end this. If your not going to fight to win, just end it and bring all our men home.

31 Special Forces, our bravest and finest

Heroes all, men such as those in the WH and Congress will never equal in character and bravery

May Congress enjoy is vacation, may obama enjoy his barbeques, may Reid enjoy his pomegranates, may Pelosi choke on her spittle ranting about hating republican values Here's a photo op for Barky, one the liberals in the MEdia fought for - 31 coffins coming back to Dover, all at once
