    At the end of the day, we still have one pathetic POTUS, who does not respect the military, who concurrently do not repect his lame ass either.

    And we got the usual suspect libs, blaming Bush, as though he set some precedent for respecting the troops, when the fact is that it is Obama who has broken both with precedent, and CIC obligation.

    The only upside in this is one of humor. I could go and take a most liberal dump, and darned if the libs wouldn't gather around and admire how liberally it looked and smelt :roll:

    Dude are you serious?

    Disprespect is not making sure you have good intell. before invading another nation. Bush, should have known Iraq did not have WMD. It was pretty obvious saddam did not. If he respected the military almost 5000 would not have died for no reason.

    Sorry man, but handing me a piece of turkey on Thanks Giving is not the kind of thing I spread my legs for. You republicans on the other hand. Well-hey each to their own.

    I know a lot of guys in the military who respect the POTUS. Not saying all or even most do, just alot. Of course military are all govt. workers who enjoy free healthcare and all other socialist benefits. I know I enjoyed the while on active duty. Cracks me up how military cry against the dems. while taking advantage of all kinds of government benefits.

    What CIC obligations has Obama broken with? What major traditions has he broken with.

    GW on the other hand unilaterally pulled us out of international defense treaties for no good reason.

    The bullets, RPGs, missiles, and IEDs of our enemy weren't.

    Bush bravely enterred a RED HOT WARZONE to show his great love for our troops, which they also had (have) for him, to this day.

    Obama is a charlatan,and has no business around actual heroes...

    Exactly to WHOM was Iraq not having WMDs "obvious" ?

    Not to the UN's Duelfer Weapons group; not to France; not to Germany; not to England; not to the US Senate.

    It was obvious to everyone I knew in the UK, but the simpler souls said, 'They (Bliar and the other scoundrels) must know something we don't'. As the wiser people amongst us pointed out at the time, however, they were just lying, as they always are.

    That is because Democrats don’t care about the US Military unless they can use it for an election. Bush went to Iraq (a somewhat active combat zone) and served troops meals. Who else has done that? They all go in theater but that is it; they don’t serve military personnel Thanksgiving meals.

    Obviously it was somewhat obvious, as tthey did not invade. Remember to before the invasion when the weapons inspectors went back in? NO you probably choose not to remember that. Even to a layman like me it was obvious that Bush was FULL OF (*)(*)(*)(*)EEE.

    Trouble is you republicans run on fear, hence the color coded terror alerts you all implemented after 9/11. You do not stand back and loook at the facts. If you did we would not have invaded iraq and we would have stopped 9/11 before it happened.

    I believe that this concept will go way beyond you, but when you have a CIC(Obama) who can order troops in to combat, you could at least show them respect that they deserve. Has Obama visited any of the US Military hospitals to visit wounded troops? He did when he was running but now?

    To be frank, you are throwing a bunch of red-herrings, and grossly misinformed ones at that, while ignoring the simplest truth here. Namely, that Obama disrespects our military, much more than any President in your lifetime, and he does so overtly.

    Which party voted to cut body armor to the military vie a Senate rider? Give you a hint, not the Rep. party.

    Of course...you are probably right.....selfless acts of conviction and class are not for the timid and not everyone has that 'gene'.

    Fortunately, G.W. did.

    You could go on forever but you'd be wrong...

    What do you consider patriotic, sending troops abroad into harms way on false pretenses? Sending them into battle without adequate armor? Leaving the capture and kill of Osama bin Laden to the Afghans?

    Bush was there for the photo ops, nothing more...

    Well, what's it matter as long as politicians go to visit? Think of the enormous good Bush did Afghanistan and Iraq! Best to attack some country where people don't object next time, if you can find one.

    Whoopee de doo. She did not invade did she. Niether did her husband. Own up to the facts that you voted twice for a man who due to his ineptness got thousands of Americans killed for no good reason. He has both Iraq and 9/11 on his hands. And you helped but the SOB in power. Feel good about that do ya?

    There was a perfectly clear reason - oil.

    Obama refuses to break bread with the troops because of......oil?

    If the silly fool felt he needed to pander his far left anti-Bush factions, he could have done a quick little surreptitious appearance at Andrews AFB not minutes away from the WH.

    Shame on the arrogant fool.

    First I never voted for Bush. I voted Constitution Party in 2000 and 2004.

    Second Bill Clinton defended Bush for taking action.

    Third Hillary voted for the war. Which is more than I can say for Obama's war in Libya which was never approved by Congress like Iraq. Yes, Bush got approval from Congress on Iraq.

    I feel good, do you know why, because unlike Clinton, Bush really got al-qaeda out of the way. It would have been nice to see OBL killed early. He but he is gone thanks to Obama. Had Clinton killed OBL, he had his head on a silver platter and dropped the ball, then 9/11 may not have happened.

    You mean the same reason the EU attacked Libya? To keep that Green stream oil pipeline going. After letting the Lockerbie Bomber out of jail to cement the oil deal with Libya? Is the guy with 6 months to live still alive?

    Almost all of them voted for war, because they were afraid of your media - same way they support 'Israel' and same way potential Republican candidates either spout madness or sit this one out. If you give so much power to bullying scoundrels you will end up turning politics into discussions of where people spend Thanksgiving, a sort of La-La Land of vacant hating.
