    Ok I'll play. Where did you get this from? No wait, let me guess. Ah.... same place BC gets his information from, The self appointed prophet Glen Beck points his body towards your state and sends you a mind message. LOL!

    Number one SF, Glen Beck Knows History better than anyone I know of. He has a staff that proof checks anything he says on air, you just seem to be too far on the left side to understand that.
    Now on this McCrystal thing. I hope he retires so he can write a book about what he really feels about the O'Bamma Regine.

    "Ok I'll play. Where did you get this from"

    A couple of months ago Obama said, "we are a military superpower, whether we like it or not."

    whether we like it or not is very telling of how he feels about the military to me.

    that is where I get that from

    I kind of thought it was pretty clever of McChrystal to get himself out of a no-win situation and out of working for an incompetent boss without having to throw in the towel and have people say he couldn't handle the job.

    He seems to be a lot smarter that Petraeus.

    As an Iraqi war veteran I will tell you this...McCrystal is a GREAT LEADER AND HIS MEN LOVE HIM. This man is not stupid...He knew what the out come of his actions would be. Simply put he is tired of fighting a war with his hands tied behind his back by Washington. He knows what is needed to win this war and he also knows he was fighting a loosing battle thanks to our leadership in Washington. Learn to read between the lines before you rush to judgement. I would serve under this man any day!!!

    I was right!
    I'm 55, and spent a big part of my Adult life in the millitary, got out in 95, oldest son is a Iraq War Vet and I have 2 members of my family in wars right now. Not a day goes by I dont think of our soldiers and I don't see it. Sounds like spun up Horse chit stright form crybaby Beck or Limbaughs mouth. Which one was it.

    This stuff has me riled and causing flashbacks to Vietnam era. We have political leaders who don't know diddly about fighting a war wanting to make military decisions. How does that saying go?....Those who don't learn from the past are doomed to relive it.

    Instead of having a bunch of people w/no military background making the decisions and trying to be armchair generals, we need to let the soldiers to their jobs so they can finish it and come home.

    Nuff said.

    I don't think you have ever been right IMO. Using someones words to base an opinion is hardly spun up horse chit. I don't listen to rush or beck, I have to work all day, I actually watch MSNBC and CNN alot at night to see what the lefties are saying, but I guess I could just ask you, you seem to be a mouth piece for the lefties. Best wishes for your family members in harms way.

    Does any of this remind anyone of Nam? Endless un win able wars. No set goals, no strategies, and no exits. leaders whom lack leadership?

    Every death seems such a waste, what color wall will we use to justify this fiasco?

    Been right about what? Please accept my apology for the spun up horse chit statement if thats true, but you never said where you heard it from and I was left to assume.
    You'll find no brand of either party on my ass, but feel free to PM me any time you need some stright scoop.

    I'm going to leave this right here, just so I know who you are :alien:.

    I guess as long as the military (God Bless 'em) are fighting for our "country", and not some idiot who can not even prove how he is qualified for anything, I will have to remain at sides with the military. The minute they tell me they are fighting for Obama, I will lose much respect for them. He does not stand for anything American, and I don't care who you are, you can not prove he is qualified for diddly squat. I pray God will turn his life around and open his eyes to the state of ignorance he lives in, before someone dislikes him a little too much.

    Very true, and VERY sad......I'm one of those people who lost a job over having my say, and it not being tolerated by superiors, regardless of how true it was. And when people are dying because of someone's incompetence or laziness, it's a very sad thing. Working in the medical field, has made me very cynical about the medical field.

    I don't believe he really spent a lot of time kissing any behind. He had his say, he knew there was a chance he could be called to "the principal's office," and he took it like a man. If a man can't speak his HONEST mind, then he's got something heavy weighing on his conscience. I'll keep my conscience clear long before I'll keep my MOUTH shut. And at the end of the day, I'll respect the man in the mirror.

    Well said.....:tu:

    Sort of like letting Les Aspen, over-rule the Generals' requests for "needed" equipment in Somalia...... Someone who really has no damned clue what he's doing getting opportunities to make decisions that really were FAR above his level of level.

    I think McChrystal knew that Obama would have to think hard about what to do, and that if Obama called his number, then his days as a US Army General were about to end. Having served 38 yrs. he's got plenty of pension coming his way, and his pride is kept intact. For that, I think he gets a lot more :tu:

    you know what is sad is that if he would have said that about bush folks would have been ready to give the man a medal but b/c nobama is black yes i said black if you say anything regarding him in any light you are automatically considered a racist right winger and thats crap! if freedom of speech is prohibited by our civic leaders then nobama should be held responsible for every unflattoring remark he made towards former president bush and his staff during his campaign run. mccrystal should run for office and put that idiot out on his ass! hell whats wrong with folks? getting all worked up cause he told the truth about our liberal saluting homosexual agendaed socialist leader. that some folks choose to call president. you can see how the media rides with him too.if bush had made as much progress in the gulf the media would ve been all over him. i say quit carrying this bum and letting the color of his skin reserve him special treatment. name one thing that he has done to better american lives. we still have no jobs, our economy is crap and then he's going to force folks w/ no jobs to have health coverage tis man is an idiot.when he said change in his campaign he only meant changing his address from illinois to washington d.c. he didnt mean he was going to do a damn thing to help the idiots who voted for him or anybody else and if i offended anybody I dont give a sh!t it is what it is! i work my ass off and then he uses my tax money to help bail out folks who dont deserve it and instead of helping americans he sends $160 billion dollars to aids infested haitians who are probably on thier way to florida as we speak. where was the relief effort for tennessee and the folks out in the mid-west ? bunch of bs if you voted for this idiot you deserve him....

    hell if i was black i'd be extremely pissed considering they put this man in position to better thier lives for thier families and communities and he hasnt done crap but lay up with his planet of the apes looking wife who said she wasnt proud to be american til her mullatto husband was named pres. and she gets treated like jakie o. and folks act like she never said it! he wanted to secure his votes so he treated arizona like crap when in reality it should be federal law wait a sec oh thats right it is! up hold our laws if they are illegal they are criminals! sieze any property they have obtained while being here illegally after they are arrested and auction it off and if they recieved any type of public assistance they should be forced to repay it b4 they are released from prison and deported and denied access to enter our country ever again! this isnt a welfare state its a sinking ship and the captain doesnt know how to swim!

    I can tell the difference between one and 20. Its clear you cant.

    Buttbuddies Ha Haaa, Typical responce from someone that has nothing to bring to the table. Unlike most I actually like comming down to your ignorant level of personal insults, so I ask, does your mouth taste like poop from sucking all that corporate ass?

    Lied about my age and went to work at 17 in a welding plant, Spent a big part of my adult life in the millitary, my skilled trade is a Journeyman Iron Worker. Everthing I have is paid for and my second home will be by the end of the year. And you think your something special caus your daddy got you a job.
    Now I figure the only time you have had a blister was when you was making love to yourself, because you cant last long enough to work up a sweat with a real woman. And just so you know, the last tit I had hold of belonged to your ma ma.

    What you need to do is go pull them panties out of that Camel Toe of yours and come back under your real user name.
