43 U.S. Troops Have Died in Afghanistan Since Gen. McChrystal Called for Reinforcements and President Obama goes off to Copenhagen, Denmark to lobby for the 2016 Olympics.

If we aren’t going to fight the war properly, they maybe we shouldn’t be fighting it at all.  That was the sin of the Vietnam War.

One could argue that we won in Afghanistan, since we have already removed the Taliban from power.  Similarly, we won in Vietnam and signed the Paris Peace Accords.  The problem was when was when the enemy kept fighting, Congress cut off funding.

I certainly hope President Obama doesn’t turn Afghanistan into another Vietnam!

Children singing songs in praise of the President, just like they do in dictatorships.

The second one usurps the tune of “The Battle Hymn of the Republic“.

Gen. Stanley A. McChrystal sent a classified report to President Obama about Afghanistan and someone leaked it to the Washington Post.  This is worse than the “Valerie Plame Affair” and there is no investigation?

Someone in either the Pentagon or the White House, leaked a classified report an no one cares?

The Justice Department is apparently too busy investigating what CIA personnel did several years ago, even though they had been investigated and cleared.

Which is worse, the Leak or the lack of an investigation?

If everyone who opposes Obama’s national health care plans are racists, then why did most of those people vote for him?  One can argue that they didn’t understand his plans, but not that they didn’t understand his race.

If race is an issue for most Americans, then are the race-baters saying the election was stolen?

Nancy Peolosi talked about the “Culture of Corruption” of the Republicans when she became Speaker of the House.

Charlie Rangel is being investigated by the House Ethics Committee for not paying taxes and declaring properties that he could not have bought on his Congressional Salary.  Then he gave campaign donations to 3 of the House Ethics Committee Members and yet Nancy Peolosi refuses to remove Rangel from his committee chairmanship “until the Ethics Committee finishes its investigation.”
