Obama's Drama
Sgt. McGee loading up some of the "scarce" equipment in Afghanistan
During the last debate, Obama made a statement about the military that just didn't cut the mustard.
I spoke with a buddy of mine, Army Sgt. Anthony McGee, currently stationed in Gardez, Afghanistan. I last saw Sgt. McGee, a former Marine, in November. Anthony had these comments that I have reprinted with the Sergeant's permission.
Anthony: I think Obama's full of sh**
or he just doesn't have all the facts right
Anthony: We have enough equipment in my area
8:49 AM me: Have you heard of shortages elsewhere?
Anthony: Just because one captain can't figure out how to use the supply system doesn't mean we're all f**ked
8:50 AM I've heard of people getting short d*cked by outgoing units but all that can be taken care of pretty quickly
9:02 AM Anthony:
If it was really to the point where he was scrounging for weapons like
he said, I wonder if he went through his chain of command or went
straight to the press
anyhow man, I got to get out of here so I can get some chow
I got to do some crew serve maintenance in a little while
later man
Obama has been made a fool now. All day today the news shows have been talking to soldiers who basically called Obama a liar. The Dems have tried to use our brave men and women in uniform as scapegoats on whom to blame all the violence in the world. Instead, these courageous freedom fighters are the ones who've prevented another attack on American soil. Bush and the GOP congress are standing up for them and helping them keep supplied while the Dem traitors keep trying to punish veterans and demonize our combat heroes (like in Berkeley).

I love how soldiers talk.
Don't worry; the Messiah won't be the next Commander in Chief. What's happening now is just a kind of nation-wide street party celebrating a fun fad.
The Messiah will be defined as the McGovern Version 2.0 that he is. He won't see it coming because he now believes his own propaganda. The fact the he used this bogus Afghanistan story shows that he's not the political mastermind we've been told he is.
Hubris, baby. It's what killed Hillary's campaign, and it'll get Obama, too.

"The fact THAT he used this bogus Aghanistan story," I meant to write.
Me idiot.

Sgt. McGee is smoking a cigarette!
I'm sorry. I can not trust the opinion of someone who inflicts second hand smoke on innocent Afgan people!
Also, he's been obviously well coached by Halliburton/CIA/Big Pharma experts.
/sarc off

Just like you've been "well coached" by the NYT? That has to be the most utterly stupid comment of the year.
Since your obviously too much of a coward to go serve yourself, why don't you go back to your Starbuck's and continue whining about what a horrible country you live in, as you enjoy all of it's benefits brought to you by our rotten military!

Tom, you are a brainwashed imbecile slobbering at the trough of slop put forth by your socialist lapdog presidential candidate, Obama. Put the bong down you mewling bint and be thankful you have good and honorable men like SGT. McGee putting their lives on the line every day to keep your sorry butt free to spew your tripe.

Ummm, Ed? Did you not see the /sarc off that ended Paul's comment?

ED B, You are a jerkoman of the '1st piss'. I think there is an award for you, and a place for the ceremony. Should you be informed of these things, be sure to NOT bring your mother.

I was just thinking to write what Tom W. already wrote I saw as I scrolled down. Dittos. Soldiers speak like the Native American - direct, honest, with an impressive economy of words, Calvin Coolidgelike. Stuff like..
Obama- full of shit.

Wait a sec, I though Obama said we were just lauching airstrikes against innocent villages there? So wouldn't he think that a shortage of weapons would be a good thing?
Does he now support the mission because he's the front runner?
