B. Hussein Obama Seeks US Defeat in the Middle East
One needs to look no further than B. Hussein’s Obama voting record to conclude he is seeking defeat in the Global War on Terrorism. His refusal to support our leadership as well as voting against providing all of the necessary resources available to me and my fellow Marines in the time of war, in my opinion, is treasonous.
I am sure you remember his negative mannerisms and MoveOn.org-based questions to General David Petraeus during July of this year. On July 10th, 95 out of 100 Senators voted to confirm General Petraeus as Military Leader of the Middle East. Barack of course didn’t.
Voted against the Military Commissions Act which was the bill that created a military commission to try unlawful enemy combatants for violations of the laws of war and establishes rules for the conduct of these commissions. It passed anyway 65-34.
Never casted a Yea vote for funding operations in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Never casted a Yea vote for an emergency funding supplemental bill.
Voted for a withdraw 3 times.
Twice voted for the Iraq Troop Reduction Amendment against the advice of General Petraeus.
Voted for the Time Between Troops Deployments Amendment against the advice of the U.S. Army.
Voted for the United States Policy in Iraq Resolution of 2007 which was the resolution to start a phased withdraw in Iraq. Again, against the advice of General Petraeus.
Voted for the failed Supplemental Appropriations for the Department of Defense and Timeline for Withdraw from Iraq resolution. Once again, against the advice of General Petraeus.
Voted for the failed Cluster Munitions Amendment which refused to fund our military for any cluster weapons unless clearly specified that they wouldn’t be allowed near civilian populations. If B. Hussein was aware of what’s going on over here he would know that we never go after anyone unless we can positively ID them. And, it’s horrific to have a Senator assume we would place civilians in harms way.
Bottom line, B. Hussein was against the surge which of course worked. He works contrary to the experts on the ground and his refusal to vote for General David Petraeus shows his disregard winning leadership.
Even the left-leaning Brookings Institute said withdraw would most likely result in the slaughter of up to 800,000 people in and around Iraq.
Is that the leadership you and I want and need in a President? Someone who runs contrary to success? Someone who wishes to spur the slaughter of hundreds of thousands of people?
Slick Willies disregard for people in Africa and the former Soviet Union resulted in over 1.2 million people being slaughtered.
Their vision of America in which sitting on the sidelines, waiting to be hit, and ignoring genocides is not why I came over here to fight.

I actually decided yesterday while reading some news updates on my phone at the salon, that I do not like Obama. Something about him smells of ignorance and weakness. Not quite my cup of tea.
Obama may speak eloquently but I feel he has no back bone or willing to take a stand even if it is not a popular decision. At least I know McCain will take no ***t from any one and will stand up for he belives and wont back down under pressure.
BHO seems to keep changing his position too. Go back and read his pevious statements on the Senate floor as well as in the press.
This highlights he doenst have a strategy. Tactics evolve but a strategy shouldnt.
He is too much of a novice and too ignorant to listen.

Why don’t you ever face our real enemy–China? Is it because you are a George W. Bush supporter? Bush is afraid of China and for good reason. That’s why he’s going to the Olympics. He doesn’t want to make them angry, even though they are hacking into our computers daily.
“U.S. defense officials confirmed that Chinese military hackers had broken into computers at the Pentagon used for email within the office of Defense Secretary Robert Gates….”
China is the real enemy, not Obama. McCain and Bush are the real friends of Asian communists and that makes you one of them.
Jerry - you are just ignorant. Everyone else agree?
When General Stanely McChrystal was asked, “when did you last speak with B.Hussein Obama”, he stated 71 days ago. Here is a president who stated that he wants to win the war in Afghanistan, OR DOES HE? Has not contacted his General in 71 days??? Our troops are in danger, but…..
B. Hussein Obama IS MORE INTERESTED traveling 4,000 miles to Copenhagen, Denmark this Friday to charm and attempt to persuade members of the International Olympic Committee to hold the 2016 games in Chicago. But, what about our troops? ? ?
Hussein is trying his very best to destroy our country. And nobody is doing anything about it.
