He’ll suck up to every damned Muslim in the world, except when it’s in the interest of his country.

Is there some reason why Obama likes to kiss ass of Muslim fanatics in the Middle East while flipping the bird at pro-Western leaders there?

Yes, I realize Afghanistan is not the Middle East, but the point remains...

Obama was overheard to say:
"This working at a real job is a beatch! People are so uncooperative!"

As a community organizer, obama's main talent consisted of firing up a group of trained Chia pets, whipping them into a fervor of racial hatred and entitlement scorn.

Directing a group to go where they want to go anyway, is not leadership. The mainly are just looking for some goon in a suit to step up front and take the blame if something goes wrong - the Chicago stooge syncrome.

The kenyan could tell his Chia pets anything and they'll believe him, bedcause they WANT to believe him. They would even go so far as to believe that an island could tip over without the proper weight distribution.

But now he's in a new world; his lap-kitten media as taken good care of him up to now, but maybe it will occur to them that the "messiah" will not be president forever, and they have overdrawn their credibility account with the American people by carrying his piss bucket for him for so long.

He has proven one old adage I've always heard, "In America, anyone can grow up to become the President". Of course, that old adage meant any "American Citizen".

MR. obama once remarked that something was "out of his pay grade.". Well, I think he has sorely proven that anything other than race baiting and running his mouth is OUT OF HIS PAY GRADE.

There is absolutely nothing that this administration can do right. The president is totally unqualified and ditto for people like Axelrod and other “advisors.”

Karzai is a corrupt mutt and it is funny to hear him say that unless we stop pressing him he will join the Taliban. I think the creep has always had ties to the Taliban. No, I can’t prove that. But with a brother who is in the heroin dealing business and the Taliban financing its operation with drug dollars, it is hard to see how Karzai could not benefit from affiiation with at least some faction of the Taliban.

Great comments, I agree with you 100%!

Would like to add something.
Didn’t he tell us all in 2008 that he was sure he could just talk to these folks and they would be happy to see things his way?

Oh yeah, negoiation was the only way to solve this world’s most pressing problems, right Obummer? Well, let’s see you negotiate your way out of this paper bag you crawled into.

I am surprised this rag had the gonads to publish a story so negative about Obummer’s foreign policy goof-ups.

I suspect he Afghans have long memories and I understand the Koran follows the Old Testament dictum, “an eye for an eye.”
