I can see a lot of general officer retirement papers being put in.

And THAT, I suspect, is the REAL Obama/Ayers plan. They want to demoralize our military so that many of the finest will leave (and be replaced with leftists and worse).

We need to support and encourage our wonderful troops, at every level of rank, to STAY IN and ride out the leftist assault on our military.

I was actually referring to 1-4 stars in general. Hell, I know plenty of company grade officers that already plan on handing in their papers.

IIRC, something like 200 former inmates at Gitmo have been released and roughly 50 have returned to the battlefields of Iraq and Afghanistan. Some have even killed members of the US military after getting their freedom.

As with all liberals, Obama’s head is firmly planted up his butthole.

This idiot needs to go there before he vows anything.

I hope he catches a muslim “cocktail” in the face.

I was commenting on Obama’s statement not yours.

I hope not. This is exactly the problem, not confronting liberals. We take our kids out of schools, and run from them when we should stand and fight. Because for every Schwarzkopf and Petraeus there's a Weasely Clark and Colin Powell in the wings.

We don’t and never have tortured at GITMO. What a loser this guy is and his followers.

It may be the pinot noir speaking, but I don’t give a flying F*** what the rest of the world thinks of my country.

There is so much in this article it's hard to know where to start.

It appears much higher "petrol" prices are in our future, since he is determined to "break our addiction!!!!! If that happens then Palin should be all over him for the next four years.

Speaking about the economy, Senator Obama said the Government should not worry about deficits over the next two years while spending money to jumpstart the ailing economy.

Get ready for rampant inflation

He said a consensus had emerged between economists in both major US political parties that expensive measures were necessary to avoid a deep recession. WHO on our side? I want to know names

No, we just kill 2, 3, or is it 4 thousand babies a day through abortion?

Please dear Jesus, help US!

we don’t torture but we throw a new born baby from a botched abortion on the floor of a broom closet and let it die alone and without any decency and that is okay with Obimbo.

Who is going to testify against these terrorists in open court when knowing full well that they will be targeted by jihadists for doing so?

Who will sit on a jury and convict these terrorists knowing that if they vote guilty they are signing their own fatwah?

Just let them go, oh chosen one, so they can practice their trade. Give them green cards and welfare. And, by all means, do not anger them. If you be nice to them they will leave us alone.

My son, a captian in the Marine Corps, is seriously thinking about resigning his commission.

If Obama is insisting on closing Gitmo, I guess preparing a remote island for the worst of the worst is also out of the question.

Got to let them go, its much too dangerous to bring them to the United States where their place of imprisonment would be a terror target.

Looks like Obama and Omama decided to color coordinate with his lips for the interview:

P.S. Time to tuck away the summer wardrobe, Michelle maBelle.
