Heck win in Afghanistan, Thats an oxymoron,like military intelligence. Bush and his people know where he is. They just don''t want to find him so they can continue this absurd assault on Iraq,keep oil prices high so bush and his oil friends can make all kinds of profits before he gets out of office.

O%u2019Bama and the Democrats were Shocked to Find that not one single Country would Join them in their Rage and Hate toward America or the American President. O%u2019Bama did not get a single point of %u201CBounce%u201D in the Polls. McCain is now ahead in every poll because the American voter, like the world, does not share the Democrats Endless Hate and Anger at everything American.

Not to burst your bubble, but this fact is from BBCNews
"All 22 countries in a BBC World Service poll would prefer Democratic nominee Barack Obama to be elected US president instead of his Republican rival John McCain.

Obama is preferred by a four to one margin on average across the 22,000 people polled."

running out of time???? maybe we wouldn''t need so much time, if the Bush Admin. actually cared about capturing BinLaden, they don''t care about 9/11 they just saw it as their free ticket into Iraq, something Bush Sr. couldn''t finish for his oil buddies

IF HUSSEIN BECOMES PRESIDENT,,,

YOU WILL HEAR THIS SPEECH OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN,,,

JUST LIKE YOU DID IN THE 90''s

"We will do whatever it takes, for as long as it takes, to find those who killed our sailors and hold them accountable."

the 1993 World Trade Center bombing,,, inside job

the 1995 bombing in Saudi Arabia, which killed five U.S. military personnel,,, inside job

the 1996 Khobar Towers bombing in Saudi Arabia, which killed 19 and injured 200 U.S. military personnel,,, inside job

the 1998 bombing of U.S . embassies in Africa, which killed 224 and injured 5,000,,, inside job

the 2000 bombing of the USS Cole, which killed 17 and injured 39 U.S. sailors,,, inside job

talk is no substitute for action,,,

kkklowntoon just gave us the same old tired speech and did nothing else,,,

"We will do whatever it takes, for as long as it takes, to find those who killed our sailors and hold them accountable."

Are YOU honestly THIS stupid? LOL It''s amazing someone can live and grow up in this nation and be THIS uneducated. When you occupy a nation, as we are here, you MUST apply more than the point of a gun to win the peace. THAT is something Bush or McSame have never learned. Obama 08

we have defeated fascist nazi terrorislam before,,,

after america became a country,,, fascist nazi terrorislam demanded that america pay protection money or they would attack americas ships and enslave all on board,,,

thomas jefferson and james madison was having non of that,,, and they sent americas military to kick fascist nazi terrorislams arses in barbary war one and barbary war two,,, why two wars,,, fascist nazi terrorislamists break treaties,,, sound familiar??? can you say iraq,,,

It is a settled policy of America, that as peace is better than war, war is better than tribute. The United States, while they wish for war with no nation, will buy peace with none. President James Madison

Islamics have been attacking American interests since 1947. They have attacked infidels since the religion started. They are true warriors with no fear of death. In modern times they have acquired wealth from Western civilization from oil production. They have used their wealth to increase attacks. Afghanistan has strategic value. There is no strategic value in letting the Islamics destroy the Karzai government.

There are no benefits for Americans in Afghanistan. Your tax dollars and cumulative borrowed debt to finance these operations only benefit the corporations who purchased the oil& gas rights in the Caspian Sea Basin, for the construction of the Caspian Sea Pipelines........nothing more nothing less.

And the extermination continues:...........

February 12, 1998 John J. Maresca vp of UNOCAL oil appeared before a House sub committee. The purpose of the meeting was to gain support for exploitation of oil & natural gas resources, for the rights purchased by BIG OIL in the Caspian Sea area.

In his testimony he stated, "The key question is how the energy resources of Central Asia can be made available to nearby Asian markets ".

The exploitation option stated : "One obvious route south would cross Iran, but this is foreclosed by American companies because of U.S. sanctions (with Iran ) . The only other possible route is across Afghanistan, which of course has it s own unique challenges. " He continued saying, " the pipeline we have proposed across Afghanistan could not begin until a recognized government is in place that has the confidence of governments,lenders (world monitary fund & world bank ) ,and our company "......"

UNOCAL and other American companies are prepared to undertake the job ".

HUSSEIN,,, THE RACIST BIGOT SEXIST PIG,,,

From Dreams of My Father:

''I ceased to advertise my mother''s race at the age of 12 or 13, when I began to suspect that by doing so I was ingratiating myself to whites .''

From Dreams of My Father :

''I found a solace in nursing a pervasive sense of grievance and animosity against my mother''s race.''

From Dreams of My Father:

''There was something about him that made me wary, a little too sure of himself, maybe. And white.''

From Dreams of My Father:

''It remained necessary to prove which side you were on, to show your loyalty to the black masses, to strike out and name names.''

From Dreams of My Father:

''I never emulate white men and brown men whose fates didn''t speak to my own. It was into my father''s image, the black man, son of Africa , that I''d packed all the attributes I sought in myself , the attributes of Martin and Malcolm, DuBois and Mandela.''

From Audacity of Hope:

''I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.''

Obama admits he is a Muslim

RushLiberal, chyenna

I think most of us vets agree with you. My thing is not so much for us Vietnam Vets because it''s kind of late for us as I''ve given up trying to get anything. However I am so concerned about these young kids today. I don''t care what anyone says these kids can not handle 3, 4, and 5 combat tours and get nothing when they come home. And I''m so sick of all these jerks that have never even served much less served in combat sending these kids off to a war that should never have been in the first place. I''m not against war but before we send our kids off to die for this country we better have a good cause not some trumped up BS.

The Price of having COWARDS running the country.

Last week%u2019s Republican convention sure made every superficial effort to come off as pro-Troop and pro-Veteran. And, of course, the media ate it up, not challenging a single thing. But to those of us who did serve, it was offense after offense after offense. %u2026 Maybe because it%u2019s because he has a terrible record, but not once in John McCain%u2019s speech did he talk about taking care of those who served their nation in the military. With exploding rates of PTSD, suicide, homelessness among veterans. With ridiculous wait times for veterans seeking care, and a VA that every major vets group says is woefully underfunded. With administrators dumping vets out of the veterans care system by diagnosing them with a lesser mental injury than they have. Not. A. Single. Word.

So the crusade to save the heroin trade and the oil pipeline is not going well. Perhaps crusader George can SURGE his way to victory like he claims he did in Iraq.There are a lot of Western OIL CEO''s happy with the Iraq crusade results.

It appears that the same people who almost lost Iraq are in danger of losing Afghanistan. As usual they are out of touch and nearly out of time. I hope they do not start a third war before they leave.

Since it is not there life(or families) or there money on the line they give little or nothought to the conquences of ther actions
