Biden is too stupid to die. I hope nobody else was injured.

But this shows you exactly what our enemy thinks of us now and how weak they believe us to be.

Why are they still mad?

Didn’t candidate obamar say we were going to be out of there in 16 months if he was elected? I am sure we’re out of there if that’s what he said.

They usually refer to mortar rounds as rockets. If so, this is normal day to day routine.

Ah...that would be soverign U.S. territory, and an act of war...

Now who wants to start the pool as to when bHo decides to call it something else...somethinnnng more warm and fuzzy?

Instead, I think "they" are bankin' on bHo being a weenie, runnin' scared, and pullin' out.

Yo...obama...the song goes:

...rockets red glare, and bombs bursting in air...gave proof through the night, that our Flag was STILL THERE!!!!"

I'm JUST sayin'....THAT's how the song goes!
