4. Pretty sad that this is the most significant thing Obama has done since elected
Imagine that, the guy that Republicans kept saying was a Saul Alinsky revolutionary's most significant act from his first year in office is to escalate the war in Afghanistan. Way to go Mr. Nobel Peace Prize winner!

9. If you think this is the most significant thing, you ain't seen nothing yet....
but I think ending two wars will be seen as a good thing soon enough.

7. Thank goodness those folks in Norway were in charge of that Prize
Edited on Tue Dec-01-09 09:30 PM by FrenchieCat
and not the folks here!


At least they understand what this man is up against,
and what he has already accomplished!

Near the end of his first term,
he will have ended one war,
and another will be done as well.


But in the meantime, he has much more work to do....
so he can't really care how unhappy you are personally,
because there's no way you've been happy in the last 8 years anyways.
So you'll just have to wait till we get there to stop pissing.

12. What is a "real" Democrat?
Usually we use a Capital Letter to describe one that belongs to our party.....
since you didn't bother, I can't tell who it is you are speaking of.

What you have at DU is a big tent of progressive Democrats, with some Naderites, Anarchists, left leaning Libertarians, and trolls thrown in.

13. My omission of a the Capital letter D should not be used against me...
There are a few basic truisms that comprise the Democratic Party - or what I call simply decent people.... Of which are truth, common sense,
and an inherent understanding of what is right and wrong.

14. I see why you are being unrec'ed although I did not do so........
as you aren't really saying anything.

I forewarned earlier today what would happen at DU after this speech,
and you have supported what I predicted....

"they preen in their Utopian ideological sun,
as it will be like an intellectual fashion show where the choir will sing
to the choir about death, despair, and try to outdo each other on how
condescendingly they can describe this President and his supporters."

16. Did anyone REALLY listen
to the Pres speech? really?

i don't prolonging this 'war' either, but i take him at his word that we are sending more troops so that we can get out. fer kheerist's sake--what is he expected to do? he said he'd get us out during the campaign--he said tonight, he'd get us out. I believe him. He set a time limit- there is no on and on, as in the Vietnam War--
