Obama going to Denmark to pitch Chicago Olympics

The Afghan war started a year ago?


When Bush attended the Olympics, what open issue about staying or going or putting in drones was not being addressed? FAIL


Please. Stop failing so much, it's embarrassing.
We had a different president a year ago and there was a call for a new strategy that was ignored you werent creating multiple threads bitching about the president doing other things while troops died back then but now you are. The only fail here is with your selective outrage maybe youre used to having a mediocre president
 
so how long is too long for you?



Of course I assume the worst. The worst is getting troops killed while his focus is on trivial crap.

Yeah where was your selective whining for the last 5 years as troops died in afghanistan and the president was off on random boondoggles?

Show me where bush was piddling about as the troops waited for a decision.


I'll wait.
 
He has made some improvements to things in Afghanistan, and put an increased emphasis on the situation there. I don't think he is somehow uncaring, but I do think it is a difficult, complex issue that not even the top military brass can come to agreement on how to handle. Sometimes things do take time, and it is better to take the time, get a complete analysis from those who are experts(including McChrystal), and make the best decision. The idea that somehow Obama does not care because he is taking the time to try and get it right is not going to fly.




Let me rephrase. I never said, or intended to say he "Did not care", just that it seems his priorities are skrewed.
 
Strawman fail.

Your doing it again. Failing....


Show me what decision the troops were waiting on while Bush fiddled in China.
Not a strawman fail a reverend hellhound fail this is your tactic with others on dp say they have selective outrage. Show me the topics where you bitched about troops dying in afghanistan as president bush ignored the calls for more troops in afghanistan by mccain and lieberman? Where are the topics from 2007 when general anthony tata was complaining about bush moving troops from afghanistan to iraq? How about the pentagon was saying dispatching troops from afghanistan to iraq would strain the army and marine corp? Selective memory or selective outrage on your part

McCain and Lieberman were Generals? Do you have links? to discussions here on those topics that Ignored?


Again, I'll wait.
 
Your trolling and failing as you do.,

Aw not so fun when your tactic is used against you is it? Its plain as day your complaint is with who is president you had no complaints when we knew for years we needed more troops and a new strategy and nothing was done

So you are admitting that you are baiting and trolling me, noted.


You have failed to prove this. You made a false claim, and you can't back it up. You are lying again. Please stop.

Hard to find topics of you created bitching and moaning about bush ignoring his generals if you never created those topics isnt it. You said the issue was never brought up it was army general anthony tata was shifted from afghanistan to iraq even though he knew the taliban was resurging. I cant post links from my phone i can only tell you information. There was an article in wapo on december 17 2007 bush faces pressure to shift was priorities.
Even gates was saying bush had no strategy where was your bitching back then while your comrades died

Are you admitting that what you do on a fairly regular basis is baiting and trolling if the tactic im using against you is your own. Come on heres another of your tactics show topics youve created bitching about troops dying in afghanistan while bush did other things and lacked an afghan strategy i sure cant find any of those topics. Anyone else want to try an advanced search on revs name with a keyword of afghanistan going back over a year ago and topics hes created. I read through your posts related to afghanistan over a year old no complaints about your comrades dying while bush twiddled his thumbs and had no strategy just more selective outrage that you consistently accuse others on dp of

Oh so I had to have started the threads now? How many goal posts are you going to move in this non stop tantrum of yours? Please, It's embarrassing.

Oh look, no links. How shocking. Go troll elsewhere you have been exposed as a dishonest fraud. :2wave:

It is true you only read half of my posts before your brain starts going off on a tangent. Ive consistently stated since i first replied asking where are the multiple topics you created bitching about troops dying while bush did nothing about afghanistan. The goal posts have always been in the same position since my first reply. The only thing that is embarrassing is the convenient way you use your comrades as props for your selective outrage.

Whatever kid. You lie about me, you lie about my positions, and you go on and on on you lame little schoolgirl games.


I have always thought we needed to do more in Afghanistan, if you are going to lie about me, at least attempt to prove it with a link to any of my posts.

Or stop trolling and derailing my thread.


I find it pathetic, you can't have a rational discussion about any critisizm of your little god king, as an obama apparachik, your one of the "useful" ones. :roll:

Can you read rev? I told you i cant post links from my cell phone i have you a publication name an article and a date you can easily find that. You keep crying as your inconsistency is pointed out to you. The only dishonesty going on here is how nonchalantly exploit your dead comrades in arms with your continued selective outrage and partisan hackery. You should be apologizing to the families of those 43 troops for exploiting their deaths and making a mockery of their sacrifice with your hackery
 
When are we going to find out if Chicago gets the Olympics?

I'm not sure if I want them to come here, although it would be pretty cool, too. I dunno...

It's easy to be out of line on the internets isnt it pogue.


I served my country, I know what its like to be shot at. You, are one of the ones who wouldn't. So before you lecture me on how I defend my "comrades" perhaps you should man up in your life an walk a foot in my boots. My bet is you wouldn't make it a day.


You have some nerve kid.

I might attend if if happens. We should get together for the Olympics if they come to Chicago.

I don't see why not! No talking politics though...;)
 
Moderator's Warning:
Enough. This thread is not about any individual poster here. The focus of such needs to stop and it needs to get back more clearly onto the topic at hand.

Why don't you shut your ****ing mouth, how bout that? Who are you to make such accusations you ****ing piss-ant. I bet you wouldn't say that to anyone's face, you little coward.

(Thanks Brother! :thumbs:)

Sorry Rev but the way you were posting especially making multiple threads about it it did seem like you were using their deaths to score cheap political points to say the CIC doesn't care about the troops while he's on an 18 hour trip. It doesn't give you a free pass to do what you were doing Rev. I merely asked you for references of topics you created making the same complaints about Bush which I couldn't find any. Now do you really think he's incommunicado during this time? Doesn't the General going behind the chain of command's back and going to the press after 5 days border on insubordination? Generals got fired for less during the previous president's administration

It was an observation after seeing the two threads of ZOMG troops are dying obama doesn't care, he cares more about the olympics than the troops. That's the way it came off
