That is exactly why I want them home...Live to fight another day.

Marty, that is exactly my position. I've gotten nothing but grief because of it but I do NOT WANT our men and women serving under this Stalinist/Marxist/communist. We need them HOME.

I agree with you - their blood is on Zero’s hands. He is murdering our troops as if he’s holding a gun to their heads and pulling the trigger. If I type what I really think about that sorry @sshole in the W.H., I will be banned.

Bob Beckel on Hannity last night said that 22,000 died yesterday from being denied health care.

So, according to Beckel, the US mortality rate tripled in 2 years - and each one due to being denied health care.

Unlike Beckel, we conservatives can back up our claims with facts.

I’m having heart problems as it is...I sure can’t take hearing about the deaths of our young people under these circumstances.
I feel like they are surrounded. The tali’s in front and the bad Afgans and Obama behind.

I want them home NOW. Zero has NO intention of sending more troops. Certainly NOT the numbers needed for this WAR.
Our young people are NOT expendable...PERIOD.

Always an excellent and moving post devolve.
They just had a funeral for a soldier in a nearby town. He was due to come home in November, but was recently killed in Afghanistan!

Like many Texas Military funerals, the people lined all the streets the funeral procession passed through.

Obama may be trying to delay his decision until after state elections, don't know...but he is responsible for all the deaths now.

Thanks Mesta. I’m going to check that out.

Have you heard about “Brothers at War”? I haven’t seen it but it was produced by Gary Sinese, troop supporter.

I know I will probably get jumped on for this, but bring them home. If O is not going to send them support , he is sending them out as sheep to the slaughter. Either all in or all out. Policemen patrol, not soldiers. Soldiers fight.

The American death and casualties skyrocketed within weeks of "commander zero's" new Roe. Just sayin'.

That being said al-queda did view Iraq as "lost" and every jihadi with a backpack changed tickets at Munich from Damascus to Quetta. Bad time to tie one hand behind the back of our guys.
