"Obama lied. Lets see how the Fact Checkers do on this."
Chris Wallace proved this last night. He quoted from the actual article, and said Romney's statements were factual, and Obama's weren't. He also fact-checked Romney's and Obama's troop status agreement for Iraq, and found Romney was right, and Obama was wrong. He additionally fact-checked the bayonets and horses comment Obama made, saying Fox News had been tweeted by a Marine who said they still train with bayonets. Again, Obama didn't know his ass from a hole in the ground.

It's not just marines. Every Army grunt gets a bayonet as standard issue and gets to do the bayonet training course as well. M-16s are built with bayonet lugs, standard. It is a virtual certainty that there are more bayonets in the US military now than in 1922, simply by virtue of the fact that we have more soldiers and marines than in 1922. This is a fact so obvious to anyone who has even the slightest knowledge of the US military, that for Obama to use bayonets as an example of outdated hardware is every bit as ridiculous as saying that rifles themselves are no longer used.
