Obama announces he is sending up to 300 troops back to Iraq as advisers
 


Even Barry knows he ****ed up. He can't allow Baghdad to fall like Saigon. I don't know if he can stop it at this point.

1. Biggest mistake he's made since he was elected president.


The biggest mistake Barry has made is thinking he knew what was 'really' going on in the world.

5. I remember that word "advisers" way back, way back at the beginning of Viet Nam.

I hate this, but I hate Cheney even more.


Of course this isn't anything like the beginning of Vietnam. It's more like the fall of Saigon, but it makes the DUmpmonkiez wail and throw their poo.

6. All I can say is If it is successful Obama will look like a genius.... If not and it escalates it will be Obama's Iraq misadventure.... We will see...
 

Egypt was a genius at work. Syria. Lybia. Pakistan. Yemen... all these were Barry being a genius.

9. I'm old enough to remember those "advisors" we sent to Indo-China back in the 50's. That turned out so well I was on my way to Canada when my number came up #7 in the lottery.
"President" Obama is no more in control of things than any of the last six at least.
When Obama sends people to fight another useless war it will just reinforce his self serving neocon idealogy.
He is a true believer in the whole "free market" ideology. It doesn't matter how many facts you put out there that disprove the concepts. He believes what he believes.
There is without question a "deep government" that exists beyond electoral cycles. They are not elected. Most of them are not known by the general public but probably exert more influence than most of us could hope for.

This is not going to have a good outcome.



December 1, 1969 marked the date of the first draft lottery held since 1942. This drawing determined the order of induction for men born between January 1, 1944 and December 31, 1950.  A large glass container held 366 blue plastic balls containing every possible birth date and affecting men between 18 and 26 years old.


Oct 26, 1969 the number was: 7

So- tech# had to be at least 18 on Oct 16, 1969.

Which makes poor tech, at a minimum... 51 years old today... A former draft dodger who fled to Canada...

of course, tech# is just a mole, so it doesn't really matter anyway.

71?  Care to show your work?  In '69 I was 20, I turn 65 this year.    My draft number was 23 IIRC. (bonus points if you get my birthday right)  I enlisted in the Navy after my AFES physical found me 1A.   :drunksailor: 

I agree with D6.   Barry Big Ears is backing into trouble.  He wants a Hash Tag Army and has Hash Marks in his skivvies.  I bet Moochell beats him like a rented mule when he gets out of line.

Tell me about it.  I hate trying to post from my phone.  I'll use my tablet before the phone, but my trusty desktop is my "weapon of choice".   :-)

I have been using Dixie cups and string (my flip phone gets maybe,  maybe one bar).  The WI FI at the campground is another story.  I believe intermittent is a good way to describe it.  It does not like my Windows 7 machine but does like one with XP.  It did finally hook up for a Windows 8 machine.

Unless the OIC is named 'Leonidas,' it's a totally pointless gesture.

"Spartan" would make a great call sign, but King Putt would relieve the Six in a heartbeat for it.

Yeah.  No sense of humor.  Or history.  Or much of any other kind of sense, for that matter, besides a certain variety of low political cunning.

After he allows a bloodbath in Baghdad, he'll blame it on a poor job of training by the American military.

I remember the last time someone sent 300 to do a job. It didn't turn out too good for those 300.
