I agree with this, he just has to bring back the troops in Irak, the battle in Afghanistan is jusified because 9/11 and US has a lot more control over it than Irak...
I am glad the 8 year run where we increased or deficit and increased the number of troops over seas has ended.
Obama has brought real change to Washington.

So you are against this I take it?
Obama said he would send more troops to Afghanistan. You can't really fault someone for doing what they said they were going to do during the campaign. Are you telling him to go back on his campaign promises?
We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke
It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...." Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S.

so not sending troops to Afganistan = failing campaign promise and not caring about national defense
OR sending troops to Afganistan = increasing number of troops overseas
No matter what he does you have a cause for complaint.
A crafty one you are ^_^
Obama could personally send Mafoo a $20,000 check in the mail and he would still complain about it.

Out of interest, has anyone here ever seen "Ross Kemp in Afghanistan"? It's a series in which Ross Kemp goes out an accompanies the BAS in military operations in Afghanistan.
During the last series, the company he accompanied only had a handle of losses (I think it was about 4 or 5), and yet they had over 1,000 confirmed kills.
It makes me wonder just how many troops the enemy has.
Someone please correct me if I am wrong, but I think the terrorist groups are pretty transitory and aren't stationed in many urban areas. A lot of the warfare goes on in outlying areas.
I'm not really as familiar with where the terrorists hide out in Pakistan, although I do know that there is a lot of cross traffic between the Afghanistan and Pakistan border.

If you were selling sauteed raccoon's assholes on a stick, Mafoo would buy them, and then complain that Obama didn't make them right.

The Taliban is mostly located in the Eastern and Southern provinces of Afghanistan which are predominately Pashtun. They are also located, along with Al-Qaeda operatives, in the NWFP and the FATA of Pakistan. They are also increasingly growing in strength in Northern Balochistan. There are also significant Pashtun populations in these areas. This is why Kabul is becoming increasingly targeted: it is perilously close to Pashtun areas that are the Taliban's strongholds.

It would be impossible for Obama to personally send Mafoo a check; since Obama is a federal employee and by definition gets paid by the people. THEREFORE, Obama sending mafoo a 20,000 dollar check would mean its really coming from the people and would be Socialism by definition.
