They Dined While Soldiers Died

Isn't that pretty much the mantra that we heard from the left attacking Pres Bush when he was presiding over the war on terror? Except then it was "He lied and [somebody] died".

Now our soldiers are under Pres Obama's watch and their lives are in his hands.

And with our soldiers and their leaders currently asking for more support from Pres Obama, what does he decide to do? How does he respond to their emergency calls for aid?

Their deaths add meaning to his night out. (h/t Drudge)


He was of course, taking hard-earned time away from his weekly golf outings. And of course, the media dutifully touts and drools over this as something new and amazing. Wasn't it only a few years ago that the media were slamming Pres Bush for golfing during his holidays (not part of a weekly hobby)?

Remember it was this man as a candidate that felt he could negotiate with the "moderate" Taliban.

Obama, the Chief of our Armed Forces and leader of our country, has barely spoken to the Afghanistan general, McChrystal, since taking office. That does say alot about how Obama views our soldiers and our war on terror, doesn't it?

For two years, Mr. Obama spoke of Afghanistan as a “war of necessity” that was neglected for “the wrong war” and the “war of choice” in Iraq. If elected president, he said, he would prioritize Afghanistan, immediately effecting a “stronger, smarter and comprehensive strategy.”


Yeah, we can see how he has held up to those statements in the picture above and his dedication to his hobby.

Seriously. How much comfort can you get from this president when he says things like this?

Obama asserted, "This is not a American battle, this is a NATO mission as well"


Yeah, and he also called us the largest Muslim nation as well. [friggin idiot muslim-butt-kisser]

This man is treating the presidency like that guy in your office who comes to work, reads his mail from home, plays crossword till 11, takes extended lunch breaks, always takes forever to do any little task, sees his job as just something to do during the day and then leaves early for home.

He has no respect for the job, the office, the people, or those workers under him. These soldiers are dying while waiting for Obama to make a decision. How hard is it, Mr President?

Either say, send more men and equipment in and win this war decisively. Or, tell them to come home.

Do your job Mr President.

*I am reminded of Bush's "Watch This Drive" clip whene I see stories such as this, or the juxtaposition of Obama licking ice cream while Neda was dying in the street.

*here is the link.

Pres Bush was on vacation and speaking of the recent homicide bombing of an Israeli bus by a Palestinian terrorist. (not officially our war)

But, as you point out, glammer and praise of presidents and their administration officials borders on idolatry.
