Comments on: 2 U.S. Troops Killed in Afghan Blast

With the prior administration, as bad as it was the ratio of US casualties inflicted to US casualties endured was well above 50:1. With Obama it's been more like 1:1.

Obama spends the same $700B/yr but the troops aren't doing squat. One thing Obama IS good at is killing civilians with drone attacks. Obama is putting more American lives on the line for every enemy killed.

The invasion was as unjustified undeer Bush as it is under Obama. The injustice ratio is 1:1. You failed to mention this fact.

The only "supporters" Obama will end up with
will be addled dem moderates and
phantom press copy writers.

America moved so far right that some of us
fell off the dem far left,,,
were now considered extremist,,, "somethings".

"Pathetic,,,look at 'em,,,they dont LIKE war!
What party do they belong to!??"

The militants stayed around for "several" hours and "sparked"
gun fire that that killed two US troops and wounding
others,,,What were they waiting for??,,,

GENERAL!!,,,THE SECOND AMERICAN HAS JUST BEEN KILLED!!

Excellent, Captain!!,,,That's our que,,SEND IN THE AIRSTRIKES!!"

If your so smart maybe you should go stand next to the Soldiers and Marines and show them how to do it. I'll bet you have been in fire fights before right. You don't get to put battles on easy or beginner mode in real life, Fire fights can last for days.

What is the plan to do so?

see the new boss same as the old boss!

How many more Bush crusaders are going to die before the American people wake up to the fact that the Cheney Bush hunt down ONE former CIA operative excuse was another big lie. 9/11/01 WAS A INSIDE JOB

Well... When you occupy someone else's country, you're going to take casualties. We taught that to the British twice and the Afghan people are now forcing us to re-learn the lesson.

[jwesel1]

well said.

[mysteriousjz]

My prayers are with those poor indigenous people-for every one casualty of the "angel of peace," at least a hundred pay with their lives and/or body parts etc. that never make any news.

They are right!!! The invaders and illegal occupiers sometimes known as infidels are living up to their names-killing and maiming them.

May God ease the hellfire on these departed self-claimed pseudo "angels of peace."

[IshineLikeYou]

Are you unable to pay attention to EVERYTHING, or do you only pay attention to what the Fox News talking heads and "news models" tell you to believe?

[edward1975-2009]

Obama is doing exactly what he said he would do. You weren't listening. He said he would chase the Taliban to the gates of hell and the words flew right over all that voted for him. And now you're surprised. Why. You got what you wanted, now live with it. You chose a great speaker, who had no experience, and coupled him with an idiot like Pelosi and expected something good to happen. You have to be kidding, if you did, you're dumber than I thought.

[ToolMangler1]

And our other choice was 'what'?????
Look at the headlines.... Palin who????
McCain can't even remember his name
