Time for HIGH PRAISE for the best answer to something requiring a graphic warning label. The best answer was:

Warning for gay cowboys – “WARNING: May be hard to quit.”

Except no one answered that (Dohtimes was close). So instead the HIGH PRAISE will go to Larsinkima for:

“WARNING” Voting may cause politicians.

Congratulations, Larsinkima; it’s people like you who give me hope for the future of our nation.

There’ll be more opportunities for HIGH PRAISE in the future, so keep a look out. And if you ever win three HIGH PRAISEs, you can trade them in for SUPER ULTRA MEGA PRAISE!

An AP poll shows that now less than 50% of people want Obama to be reelected. So, do you think the fact that Obama is a useless incompetent is finally starting to harm his popularity?

I thought that was already factored in when he was elected (what do you expect from someone who had a made-up job like “community organizer”?), but maybe people have changed their minds and decided they don’t want someone who has absolutely no idea what he’s doing in the highest office of the land.

What do you think?

So I guess we’re kinda leaving Afghanistan now. They’ll be withdrawing 30,000 troops in mission “Reelect Obama”. So did we win? I never understand these modern conflicts. Seems like it would be so much easier if we just trashed a country and left and declared victory; it’s this trying to help the country out that’s so complicated and makes it hard to tell when you win.

Except, with how the Taliban sheltered al Qaeda, shouldn’t the win conditions be the total extinction of the Taliban? Shouldn’t they be gone forever without even the possibility of them being genetically resurrected and having rocket launchers put on them?

Of course, maybe this is part of that strategy. We’ll be all like, “We’re leaving Afghanistan now. Bye bye. Hope the Taliban don’t come back, but if they do, not our problem.” Then the Taliban will run in and be like, “Yay! We’ve chased out the Americans! The country is ours again!” Then the Americans troops will be like, “Ha! We were just hiding behind the bushes! Now we kill you! BANG BANG BANG!”

That’s strategery; I don’t know if Obama is up for something like that. That would take the mindset of winning, and the Democrats don’t really seem to have that. Like they kept complaining about Iraq taking away focus from Afghanistan, but as soon as focus went back to that country, all they wanted was to get out. And now Obama has started a new war in Libya that all the legal experts think is illegal. Why didn’t he get Congressional approval? Probably because then it would be a war and he’d have to try and win it instead of… whatever it is he’s doing now.

Really, it’s just irresponsible to ever put a Democrat in charge of the military. And the thing is, they don’t even want to be in charge; it’s just it comes along with being the domestic president. I think they’d much rather always have a Republican running the wars that they could keep complaining about while focusing solely on excessive spending at home. There’s an idea maybe they’d sign on to: We split up the presidency so that there is a separate war president who can always be a Republican. Then people can occasionally elect a Democrat president to just the domestic half when they want free stuff without worry of messing up the military.

And what exactly are our goals in the Middle East anyway? Do we really expect there to eventually be another country there than Israel that doesn’t act like it’s run by barbaric three-year-olds? I guess it could happen, but I think we’d have to be a stronger example than a country that just comes in and occupies until it decides it’s bored of it. And I think it would help if we had working space lasers and dinosaurs with rocket launchers because you don’t want to be on the opposite side of the country that has those.

Hmm… seemed to have entered this long, rambling post without an exit strategy. Eh, I’m bored; I’ll just end here.
