YouTube - ‪Ron Paul: Obama Get Out Of Lybia‬‏
Sticking with the way 0bama mistreats our military, as their commander-in-chief....

0bama spoke with his generals, to find out what they need in the way of troops and support, to win the war in Afghanistan. They tell him 60,000 more troops; 30,00 to defeat the Taliban in the south, and the other 30,000 to defeat them in the east.

0bama denies their request and asks them what is the minimum that the generals need. The generals say 40,000 troops, 30,000 to defeat the Taliban in the south, and the other 10,000 may be able o contain them in the east, until they were victorious in the south, and then take 20,000 tropps to have 30,000 defeat the Taliban in the east.

0bama gives them 25% less then the bare minimum number of troops. 0bama sent men to war knowing they would be stretched very, very thin, because they had much less support then they needed. I wonder how many more men were dying due to insufficient support.

Now 0bama starts pulling the troops back out before they have completed their original mission, for no other reason then he wants to stick to an arbitrary time table that he set for withdrawal.

So why did our president send our brave men off to fight, die or be wounded in a war, if he did not want victory?

I would have had more respect for 0bama if, in 2009, he had said the government in Afghanistan was too corrupt and the people not committed enough, for him to waste any more precious blood and tears of America's finest men and women, and pulled our troops back. We could have left enough there to train their army, but not to escalate the war if he did not plan on winning.
If you do not intend to win, then all you are doing is sending men to die needlessly.

But of course, YOU are.

OK, so if he's so smart, what's his IQ. What were his grades in school?

The way he's running the country, he is NOT that smart.

Whew!!! I need to stop, but I could go on forever. My fingers just get tired from typing. This fool is an incompetent twit who has no clue as to what needs to be done to help the US economy. The sooner he is out of office, the better. I wonder if anyone can name ANYTHING he has done in a positive fashion for the US?
^^^^^ this. And I would like to add he is very thin skinned. I was no fan of Bush, but Bush was called every name in the book.

Obama isn't getting anything close to what Bush had to put up with, yet his knickers get in twist awfully fast....it goes with job.

BTW I never voted Republican in my life and was supporting Hillary.

This guy is in so far over his head it isn't even funny, in fact it is scary.
