Dems In Revolt Over Afghanistan Troop Surge

Barack Obama's much-vaunted eloquence faces the biggest test of his presidential career this week when he takes to the stage at West Point military academy to explain to a nation that thought it had elected an anti-war president why he is escalating the conflict in Afghanistan.
 
After almost three months of agonising, nine war councils and endless leaks, the president will finally make his views known on Tuesday when he is expected to announce that he is sending about 30,000 more troops. This will push up American forces to 100,000 and the total number of allied forces to almost 140,000, as many troops as the Soviet Union had in Afghanistan.

Summed up in one statement:
Liberals do not yet understand that life is not as simple as they would like it to be.
Their rose colored glasses glossed over the reality of what is happening in this world and Afghanistan.
Campaign rhetoric has finally hit the brick wall of reality.

Didn't these Dems listen to Obama when he was campaigning. Afghanistan was the just war ! The one we "had to win!" They either didn't listen or they figured he was a liar. He should have said that we need to win it unless I get political pressure and then I will back out like a scared school girl. The Dems are GREAT at that!

Why did Bush & Rumsfeld make the deliberate decision to let Bin Laden go when they had him trapped at Tora Bora?
Was it because
1) They had made a deal when they let his people through to commit the 9-11 attack?
2) They needed a bogeyman at large to keep everyone scared?
3) Bush, Cheney et al owed the Bin Laden family some big favors?

Didn't you get the memo? Obama has been president for nearly a year now and has accomplished ZIP! I take that back. He has divided this country more than any foreign entity ever could. What he underestimates however is the resolve of the American people. And that will cause the downfall of this president and his party....the democratic socialist party.
