You’d think that with all these wonderful drones that are available now, it would be easier than ever to furnish air support to ground troops, from any service. If a drone is shot down, no pilot is lost, so a drone can go where no pilot would dare.

What a loss of a Cowboy. Under Bush it could be Yee Haw. Under Obama it’s a small-t tea party with pinky extended.

Learn something new everyday.

I wonder what kind of changes Petraeus has put in place at the CIA? These ROE’s are his idea.

Hunter was a student on mine, a really good kid. As support to his many friends and family not just in Indiana but from NC to NE, we ask that you help get the word out regarding the “constraining ROE” Obama and Company has in place.

Note the comparison of deaths and wounded between W and 0. Do we have an Amateur in Chief? Another Vietnam? I for one said “Never Again” PLEASE help stop this madness now!

Distribute the statement to as many people in as many ways as you can. Thanks. Freepers can make a difference in November.!

It is interesting the CIA can attack a target inside a sovereign nation with no restrictions.

Yet the military can have an identical target refused by ROE overseers because there may be a “civilian” nearby.

That same target then kills or injures one of our own.

O my gosh....this is betrayal. Those stats of increased casualties is an utter travesty. I will gladly vote for a partial comservative to get Obama”ass out of there so these troopers can take care of bussiness. God have mercy on Obama”s soul...he is going to need it!

Another question that has had me fuming, why was the focus on ben laden, when the destructive brains are in the head of al zawahiri? And what’s up with the prison breaks?

Here’s the statistics in Afghanistan for the 8 years of George Bush. The total killed in action under him is 660. Barack Obama in 3 years and 5 months the total killed in action is a total of 1,398.

Wounded under George Bush is 2,637 in 8 years. Wounded under Obama up to January 31st of this year is 11,529.

Barack Obama, the leftwing media's idea of an effective leader.

God bless our military. May Obama and his leftwing allies receive exactly what they deserve for the abuse they've heaped upon this nation.

Another patriot died for the benefit of politicians, due to bad ROE. I originally believed in bombing Aftganiscrap to the dark ages they so desire. Now, I say pull out all our boys and girls out of there and let them go back to their 7th century ways.

The next time that sick country/society attacks us, f**king nuke them to hell. Sorry, I don't give one sh*t about their women and children. Kill them all like we did in Dresden and Hiroshima and Nagasaki. They learned their lesson, didn't they?

I care more about my countrymen and children than theirs. Sue me.

Just maybe the goat humping, women abusing, death culture of mohammed will wise up - or at least back off. Either kill them all or get out. I'm tired of this half-assed Viet Nam bullsh*t. Screw nation building - their sick society will never learn. They are a perverse society and everyone knows it.

Another Marine who is speaking out against our rules of engagement has a blog and just posted, so I shared it here at Free Republic if you are interested...

An American General “Excuses” the Murder of American Servicemen in Afghanistan as due to “Religious Stress”!
