So Obama gave a speech about the Iraq War because it’s like over or something. I don’t know; I didn’t watch the speech since… well, it was a speech.
Anyway, I think we need to give some credit to Obama for not screwing things up in Iraq. He has shown an ability to really screw things up, but, for some reason, he just never decided to screw up the Iraq War and that was awesome of him. Instead, he just continued the policies of Bush who, though he may have been a sucky president at times, was superior to Obama in every conceivable way.
So Obama says he’s now going to focus Afghanistan, but I hope he isn’t really going to focus on it. Like, he’ll leave it to generals and stuff while he fiddles around with other things. That would also be awesome of him. We really need to find something Obama can focus on that none of us care about. Like the environment. I don’t care if his bumbling destroys the environment, as I never really liked it. Especially squirrels which are a part of the environment.
Anyway, since it can’t be said enough, thanks to all those who serve in the military and keep us safe so we can blog stupid stuff.
If you haven’t yet read Bing West’s The Strongest Tribe I urge you to do so.
Obama had better stop saying stupid things like “Victory in Iraq” because his people in the media won’t stand for it. That was George Bush’s Vietnam. We can’t win that war!!
If thee Obama keeps this up we just might win the presidency back in 2012

Is there ever a moment when The One ISN’T giving a speech?
frankenberry: We won! We won!
rom the manual: Uhh barrek, the U.S. won.
frankenberry: Oh the muslims didn’t win?
rom the manual: Uh no stupid.
frankenberry: Oh never mind
I’ll echo your sentiment, Frank. Thanks to all of our service men and women for serving with unparalleled professionalism, distinction and bravery in conflicts past and present. We owe you a debt.
Thanks indeed to our men and women in the military. Our best and brightest! They deserve better from the American people for a Commander-In-Chief!
If he focuses on Afghanistan the way he focused on U.S. jobs & economy, those people are surely doomed.
His golf game! It has kept him happy this summer. In the chilly months of this year he destroyed health care. But golf has delayed his destruction of any other American institutions (the Democrat Party excepted). Maybe if we move the White House to Florida…
Sectarian violence has already begun anew. The Sunnis have been squeezed out of the government, old scores will be settled, Iran’s influence will grow as it sprints for the atomic finish line, and our forces will be Khe Sanhed as they take pot shots from everyone. Obama has done nothing but snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.
By November 2012 Iraq and Afghanistan will both be lost. Ironically, this will delay Iran’s atomic coming out party, knowing that their attaining the bomb will be the final nail in Obama’s coffin. Look for that blast shortly after his defeat (or unlikely re-election).
Teh One claimed the success actually created by Bush and the troops. Maybe that general who upset bHo did it to keep bHo busy and away from the troops. bHo is easy to distract.
After January, when the investigations begin, he can focus on shredding documents. That should keep him busy and out of productive peoples hair.
Just remember: Obama gets credit now, but if things deteriorate at all it’ll be Bush’s fault.
That crazy environmentalist guy today singled out squirrels in his manifesto. Could it be that this article triggered his freakout?
It would be really excellent if obuma would focus all his attention on squirrels. A man does his best work within his zone of expertise.
Remember “The Peter Principle”? I thought people got just ONE promotion past their level of competence. How did obuma get a whole bunch?
Time from our invasion of France to victory over Nazi Germany: 11 months
Time that Obama has presided over the Afghanistan quagmire, accomplishing basically nothing: 19 months and counting.
Maybe he’s saving the issue for this re-election campaign….
So… I guess this means no ticker tape parades for the triumphant returning troops?
