Obama orders more troops into Afghanistan. 17,000 more to be exact. Sounds like a Bush "surge" strategy at play here. So......... Does this action mean Obama is a war criminal as he is continuing Bush's war policy? Does Obama=Hitler yet as this still amounts to a foreign intervention that he now owns? Where are all the anti-war whiners???? Where is Code Pink??? Where is Cindy Sheehan?? Where are the whiners of Europe?? Are all troops out of Iraq as promised, and if not, where are the calls for immediate withdrawal? |

In Europe, I give him credit for a bit time to come. He is brand new in office, I see that he actually tries to improve on many levels, I'm also aware he is not a superman but a mere men with the right attitutes. We do not expect wonders but at least the honest "attempt" to make things betters. So far he lived up to the expectations, even though his successes so far were limited. Unluckily Obama overestimates the "good" in people. He is too much of an idealist for his own good I fear.

It's almost like this was a stated aim of his Presidency.

I saw the other day Obama asked point blank if he will change the policy to let the coffins of U.S. service men to be filmed and put on the news like was done I guess in past wars...he dodged the question...dork ...instead of saying yes like his worshipers wanted....and as his budy Obiden had said..."we should not be sneaking them back into the country"...I agree...people need to see and know the cost of War...and the Cost of failure...this in my opinion was a mistake not to make it more public....when the people saw 2000 people get squashed like bugs in the WTC's it pissed some people off and some action was taken....well when I see my brothers coming back home not the same way they left it pisses me off too and want them to be able to finish what was started...until they / the president or military leaders, deem it to be resolved...and can say...we did it right, we did it the best that could be done...we did something to fight the *******s in the world and to make a difference.

![]() Give it time, Remember, many Americans liked Bush for the first year or two also. I am sure that the protesters are warming up once the honeymoon is over. Let's give the President a little time to get things going. There is plenty of time in the next four years to heap hatred on him. ![]() There are many, myself included, who are just waiting to see what happens.. waiting to see if President Obama's plans work out. If they don't, I am sure President Obama will get the full Bush treatment. ![]() I intend on treating President Obama the same as I treated Bush. I gave Bush the benefit of the doubt until he acted, in my opinion, against the best interests of the country. Only then did I start disliking him. The same criteria will apply to President Obama. I will give him the benefit of the doubt until, in my opinion, he is acting against the best interests of the country. If he fails, I will be the first one to Bushize him. ![]()
