The White House signaled Sunday that President Obama would postpone any decision on sending more troops to Afghanistan until the disputed election there had been settled and resulted in a government that could work with the United States.
I wonder how our troops feel, being abandoned by their Government and Dear Leader? Their Congress took millions of dollars away from their budget to buy ammo and such, now their Dear Leader leaves them to fight with whatever they have until HE can test the winds of politics to see if they blow in HIS favor.
I feel sorry and pray for the troops already there - but any that go over there after this fiasco are damn'd fools. (and I don't want to hear any b.s. about 'obeying orders'. I wouldn't have marched to suicide when I served, and I don't expect or ask any to do so now)
