Nobel Peace Prize Winner to Wage War

[clayinaustin]

On December 1st Obama will announce that he is escalating the war in Afghanistan.

On December 10th Obama will receive the Nobel Peace Prize in Oslo, Norway.

My brain hurts...

The decision carries significant political risk for Obama, who will announce it nine days before he travels to Oslo, Norway, to accept the Nobel Peace Prize.

His liberal base, which helped him win last year's presidential election, opposes another troop deployment to Afghanistan.

"I think he's made up his mind that there needs to be a troop increase, and I have to say I'm very skeptical about that as a solution," said Rep. Janice Schakowsky, D-Illinois, a longtime Obama ally who now worries Afghanistan will become what she calls another quagmire.

You can take that to the bank. It's the difference between Obama the cadidate, and Obama the president. When you're campaining, you can say anything you want. It's not so easy when you are president.

this is the war we should have been putting our resources into all along. I am not sure if better late than never is going to apply, I sure hope so.

That could be said about every President that has been elected in my lifetime. I am FAR from an Obama supporter. It is just a sad fact.

Behind every bit of filth on Earth is a Democrat, Truman; Red China, Korea and Vietnam,Carter Iran and the Iran and Iraq war Saddam Husseins rise to the 4th largest military power and Us being there ever since,Clinton gave us Bin Laden through his weakness and Ignoring 19 Terrorist attacks and his refusal to have him Killed even when the Government of Sudan Offered the scumbags head on a Platter.

Carter and Clinton gave us 9/11.. Clinton also cast China on us Via most favored Nation status, Built their Industrial side and gave Military technology to the Communists.

Now We have thanks to the Rat Party Scum , the highest Corporate Taxes in the world and a EPA with Nazi like control over our Lives and our Energy..

The Rat party is the Party of Lawyers we have 5% of the earths population but 65% of the Worlds Lawyers..Untill there is serious Tort reform forget doing or building anything here. anything!

Now we have a government headed up by little more than a circus monkey!
