He would have pulled out but it would have been political suicide as right would have crucified him and compared the pull out to Vietnam. Never mind he inherited the mess.

Here you go. Largest embassy and most expensive ever. The size of 80 ****ing football fields! It shows you the repubs are big spenders too. The link is from a right wing news source. How about that?

So he played politics with soldiers' lives?

Hardly. It may well have been political suicide, but it is also dangerous to pull out like we did in VN. Remember how that went? However, having stuck to the Iraqi timeline was also prudent and proper.

LOL!

the direct answer to your kneejerk question, transparent product of 60 seconds "thought," is contained in the LINK you so unseriously disparage

I'm afriad that is correct. I realize you're not used to actually answering questions, assuming your article is all you need. But you should read my questions again, and at least point out what you think answer it. I'll be happy to show you your error. :coffepap

Barack Obama is the worst President in U.S. History and most knew that when they voted against him in 2008. His resume showed that he lacked the leadership skills for the office and the results reflect that lack of leadership skills. Obama kept Bush' Sec. of Defense and the brought back David Petreaus to save his ass in Afghanistan. He is far left in a Center Right country and the American people work up last Tuesday except of course for the Left Coast. He is very naive and very arrogant, a dangerous combination.

You're opinion is noted. You won't mind if I disagree will you? :coffeepap
 
Conservative said:
Not surprised that you would disagree with me as feelings always trump actual facts and reality in your world.

What is it going to take for you to admit that you are wrong regarding Obama? You continue to buy the rhetoric while ignoring the results and the policies that led to those results. You are quick to jump on the party line without actually reviewing the results behind that party line. It is almost like a cult follower who cannot admit when wrong.

Spoken like a true ideologue. You don't know me, you don't know my background. If you knew my background you would have known I was a staunch Democrat whose eyes were opened a little over 30 years ago. Only a true ideologue trusts but never verifies. I verified what I was being told and saw the Democrat Party leave me. The facts are there for all to see, only the blind ideologues refuse to look at the facts.

I know your posting history here. You have about 4 or 5 canned lines you use in every post.

I got out of the pot and the kettle over 30 years ago when I tried to reconcile the rhetoric to the results. This country wasn't built on the principles today's Democrat Party is promoting and the ones that you seem to accept. I suggest studying history and civics, you may just learn how wrong you are.

My canned responses as you call them are rooted in actual data and facts from non partisan sites. You pick and choose from sites that are questionable at best when it comes to accuracy. It is hard refuting bea.gov, bls.gov, and U.S. Treasury data so you ignore the data.

Nope. You have not. And you're factually incorrect and blinded by your partisan view. So, you're still a pot. Maybe a ketle as well. :coffeepap
 
Notice the deflection here.....Why not put away the deflection tactics Joe, and actually answer Conservative's question honestly for once? Good GAWD!

Why, because you say so? Where are the facts that prove me wrong? You offer CBO projections but never corrected CBO results. You buy rhetoric and ignore non partisan facts yet claim that I am wrong. That is a cult follower!

You can be happy with your posts any time the Liberals attack you with lame on liners or name calling because they lack the knowledge to carry on a meaningful intelligent conversation because they are generally wrong, but so invested in being wrong they can't deal with the truth.

Obama has been the worse ever to hold any office. He did nothing in the Senate of note and has followed it up with even less.

He will go in history for being the Welfare Lotto king, little -k-. for using the White House as his personal Welfare office for claiming trips for personal vacations as State visits, like this PHONY BS in India.

He's going there for what? Jobs. Are you kidding, me there was just a massively expensive plant built in California to make Solar roof cells, and promptly went out of business because they cannot compete with China, and Surprise, Surprise, India.

The price per unit is double the cost of imports, the really bad thing is they knew they would never be able to compete simply because of labor costs.

And Obama knew this before he left on the trip only because he wanted to see the Festival of Lights.

So take a bow every time a Liberal attacks you.

I wear their personal attacks as a badge of honor as Boo, Winston, and others never address the issues raised or the facts presented. For them it is all about feelings and ignoring how they have been brainwashed.

We must fight fire with fire Joe....More often than not you bring the attack in as a deflection of direct questioning.

What I said was that the tactic of personal attack to deflect argument in here is endemic of the liberal left. Joe is a solid part of that, and a near text book example of Allensky tactic in debate. Now if you want to say that someone else does that also, then we should call that what? the nana, nana, boo, boo they do it too gambit? What? it is tiring, and transparent.
