AND the Pres of Afgahanistan is threatening to quit and join the Talaban. So all our people died for nothing? :mad:
I think we should just pull out and let him run his own country or lose it his own way if that's how he feels. :mad:
I think a nice parting gift would be in order.

All you'd ever accomplish with a MOAB in Afsandistan would be to make the rubble bounce.
When the Taliban and Al Quaeda stop using women and children as human shields let me know, willya?
As long as the opposition continues to use women and children as both human shields and weapon delivery vehicles, it makes it impossible for me to believe any claims of civilians killed by military operations.
Like the Israelis in Gaza, how much of it is real and how much of it is a setup? The press had a field day when the Israelis bombed "civilians", but said nothing when it was discovered that the civilians had been herded there by the terrorists.
There are no rules when fighting these "people". How many patrols doing house to house in Iraq and Afghanistan have found live IED's stored under baby cribs, kids beds, in playrooms, toyboxes, etc? Easy to cry foul from your livingroom trusting in the ever truthful media to give you the part of the story they want you to see.
Exactly right.
They get brownie points because OUR media reports falsely about THEIR actions.
I guess some people haven't got the nounce to figure out yet that they've been had.
Same happened to us in Vietnam.....a big deal media coverage on the Mei Lai massacre....but hardly a puff of air about what the cong did to their own people in Hue.
Osama Bin Laden has just released another tape outlining
his next threat.
He warns that he will drop the MOAA (Mother of All Afsanditans) on MOAB, UTAH.

It's the red dot, right off of Hiway 70......
The U.S. State Department is waiting to see if the voice on the tape is really OBL.

The ATROCITIES done to soldiers in Viet Nam are some of th cruelest stuff that I have ever read about.
And it seems that people seem to forget what happened at the Hanoi Hilton.
How can Washington let GWB and the evil Dick C. make more money.

Why? Why are our elected officials turning their backs on us!!!

I want hope and change back, the audacity stops here!
morons.
Dude,
I came home for lunch and popped on the tube to see BO at the KSC.
Too bad we don't use hot air balloons to explore anymore.

What a giant CF.
He'll listen to people at NASA to get more money pledged to the program, but cannot bend those ears to hear what the common man wants and needs?
Do not get me wrong, I LOVE THE SPACE PROGRAM and think the money was going to get there some way, but to flip flop on the cuts just shows he's another politician.
Maybe NASA can get him one of those virtual reality monocles that way he doesn't have to do the squinty eye thing when he change from teleprompter to teleprompter.

LOLOLOL,
I signed a petition and sent an email to my state senator, along with my address and zip code and this twit cannot figure out that while I may not be a constituent, I do live in the state that elected her.
What a buffoon.;)
I popped on the tube looking for news about the car bomb in NYC.
I tuned in to MSNBC and beheld the trash that I abhor the most.
Joe Scarborough, the blonde haired shrew that is his side kick and Arianna Huffington.
JS' foil, Mika Brzezinski, is a diaper load. She makes Arianna 'adorable' when they are both on screen. Jezuz, I can only imagine what it would be like to be married to her.
A suicide attempt would be more welcome...

They were busy fawning over Kim Kardashian and her appearance at the correspondent's dinner at the white house.
The Gulf is being polluted, someone tried to wipe out Times Square and the prez is a really funny comedian.
Our Primary Elections are tomorrow & not a moment too soon for me.
There are a ton of Republican candidates running for Senate & Congress
so have heard a lot of commercials with unflattering photos & endless
exaggerations & some downright lies about Obama, Pelosi, and those wicked
power mad Democrats in Washington.:rolleyes: Some are attacking fellow
Republicans & tell how they would "fight" for "us" harder than the other guy.
My mute botton is gonna wear out if this goes on much longer. Come on
tomorrow.:)
I am half her age and still scaring small children in the Greater Los Angeles Area.:eek::confused::o
You have to look at Political Commercials like a Short Attention Span Theater.
As the campaign goes on you just have to pay attention to who says what and how the other politico answers.
Then you yell, "LIAR" at the tube. The one that causes you the least amount of angst and makes you laugh is not qualified to lead anything.
THen?
Vote the third party;)
I approve this message.:eek:
Dear Mr China,
Sorry about the Arizona law.
We kinda have lost our our bearings.

Am I crazy?
Did the Mex prez get a standing ovation in the Congress for criticizing 1070?
That lying politico has people with machine guns guarding his Southern Border.
Wow.:(:rolleyes::confused:

Seems like every Democrat stood and gave Senor Presidente some love.....:eek:
Accomplice?

I have to laugh.
The prez came out and talked about an "international order" he wants to implement.
Seriously,
GB got HAMMERED for calling the Gulf War a crusade. This guy comes out and could possibly agitate the people who believe in all the talk about the "New World Order" that they think is on the horizon.
Wow,
What an unfortunate choice of words. I cannot believe that any of his speechwriters and staff approved that speech.
And to do it at a military academy?
Bowing an apologizing to heads of state is one thing, this?
One of the things I fear I fear in life ? It's the 'guy that drives the bus' I always talk about.
Obama wins the right to detain people with no habeas review?
Link.Quote:
(updated below - Update II)
Few issues highlight Barack Obama's extreme hypocrisy the way that Bagram does. As everyone knows, one of George Bush’s most extreme policies was abducting people from all over the world -- far away from any battlefield -- and then detaining them at Guantanamo with no legal rights of any kind, not even the most minimal right to a habeas review in a federal court. Back in the day, this was called "Bush's legal black hole." In 2006, Congress codified that policy by enacting the Military Commissions Act, but in 2008, the Supreme Court, in Boumediene v. Bush, ruled that provision unconstitutional, holding that the Constitution grants habeas corpus rights even to foreign nationals held at Guantanamo. Since then, detainees have won 35 out of 48 habeas hearings brought pursuant to Boumediene, on the ground that there was insufficient evidence to justify their detention.
Immediately following Boumediene, the Bush administration argued that the decision was inapplicable to detainees at Bagram -- including even those detained outside of Afghanistan but then flown to Afghanistan to be imprisoned. Amazingly, the Bush DOJ -- in a lawsuit brought by Bagram detainees seeking habeas review of their detention -- contended that if they abduct someone and ship them to Guantanamo, then that person (under Boumediene) has the right to a habeas hearing, but if they instead ship them to Bagram, then the detainee has no rights of any kind. In other words, the detainee's Constitutional rights depends on where the Government decides to drop them off to be encaged. One of the first acts undertaken by the Obama DOJ that actually shocked civil libertarians was when, last February, as The New York Times put it, Obama lawyers "told a federal judge that military detainees in Afghanistan have no legal right to challenge their imprisonment there, embracing a key argument of former President Bush’s legal team."
But last April, John Bates, the Bush-43-appointed, right-wing judge overseeing the case, rejected the Bush/Obama position and held that Boumediene applies to detainees picked up outside of Afghanistan and then shipped to Bagram. I reviewed that ruling here, in which Judge Bates explained that the Bagram detainees are "virtually identical to the detainees in Boumediene," and that the Constitutional issue was exactly the same: namely, "the concern that the President could move detainees physically beyond the reach of the Constitution and detain them indefinitely."
But the Obama administration was undeterred by this loss. They quickly appealed Judge Bates' ruling. As the NYT put it about that appeal: "The decision signaled that the administration was not backing down in its effort to maintain the power to imprison terrorism suspects for extended periods without judicial oversight." Today, a three-judge panel of the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals adopted the Bush/Obama position, holding that even detainees abducted outside of Afghanistan and then shipped to Bagram have no right to contest the legitimacy of their detention in a U.S. federal court, because Boumediene does not apply to prisons located within war zones (such as Afghanistan).
So congratulations to the United States and Barack Obama for winning the power to abduct people anywhere in the world and then imprison them for as long as they want with no judicial review of any kind. When the Boumediene decision was issued in the middle of the 2008 presidential campaign, John McCain called it "one of the worst decisions in the history of this country." But Obama hailed it as "a rejection of the Bush Administration's attempt to create a legal black hole at Guantanamo," and he praised the Court for "rejecting a false choice between fighting terrorism and respecting habeas corpus." Even worse, when Obama went to the Senate floor in September, 2006, to speak against the habeas-denying provisions of the Military Commissions Act, this is what he melodramatically intoned:

I am speaking with Congress here.
All the more reason to give up, get on your Air Force One and talk to the people of the Gulf Coast, wasting time with that knucklehead Baba Boxer lowers your credibility.
LOLOLOLOL, Check out the way BO brushes his shoulder off after BB gets close.
That was worth a million words right there.:eek:

My sweet lord,
The current regime in the White House is battling the story about offering a Democratic politician an unpaid advisory position if the guy dropped out of an election.
Now, How stupid do you have to be to double your workload for the same salary?
Actually?
THis is the solution to the unemployment problem.
Offer the unemployed population, unpaid positions within the government.
They will be off the relief roles, staying busy and more work will get done w/in the halls of Washington, D.C.
Pure Genius.
And while you are at it Mr. Prez? Make us buy our own office supplies!
