Kerry: Too Soon to Commit More Troops to Afghanistan

Politico: In an interview on CNN’s "State of the Union” in which Kerry rejected numerous comparisons between the current war and both the American fight in Vietnam and Russia’s invasion of Afghanistan, the senator and Vietnam veteran said that “we have a responsibility to make certain that the government here is a full partner in our efforts to be able to be as effective as we can be. So before the president makes a decision about the numbers of troops that ought to come here, I believe it is critical for us to be satisfied that the reform efforts that are absolutely mandatory within the government here are in fact going to take place and be fully implemented.”

HOW STUPID ARE VOTERS?

Cold Warrior   October 18th, 2009 - 8:10 pm

We might never get rid of John “I hate America” Kerry, but if you want to REALLY make a difference in your state, then you have to become a voting member of the main adversary of the Dems — the Republican Party. To vote for its leadership and endorse its best candidates. Did you know that in the 2008 election cycle HALF of the precinct committeeman slots in the Republican Party were VACANT? That means that the Party was at half strength. And the half that were filled were split about 50-50 between conservatives and moderates.

Ever hear a Republican conservative tell you about this? No. Why? BECAUSE EVEN THE CONSERVATIVES FEAR THAT IF CONSERVATIVES FLOCK INTO THE PARTY, EVEN THEY MIGHT BE THROWN OUT BY A BETTER, MORE CONSERVATIVE, NEW CANDIDATE WHO HASN’T VOTED FOR EARMARKS OR OTHERWISE COMPROMISED THEIR PRINCIPLES.

Go here to learn more: http://www.theprecinctproject.wordpress.com

PCs get to vote for the leadership of the Party and help determine, my majority vote, which candidates get the endorsement of the Party in the Republican primary races. Only takes a few hours of time a month. With half the PC slots in the Party nationwide vacant, and with a fifty-fifty split right now between conservatives and moderate RINOs in the PC ranks, the Party is there for the taking by conservatives/libertarians if we’d all just get off our duffs and get to a meeting of the local GOP and volunteer to become a PC. Want to save your country? Then invigorate the “main enemy” of the Debtocrat/Socialist Party with your presence.

Becoming a PC should be every conservative’s first priority. Blogging and carrying a sign at a Tea Party or attending a town hall is great, but unless we have better leadership and candidates in the main adversary party, the Debtocrats will get returned to power. It’s all about the Constitution and all about winning the elections. The best way to restore the Constitution and to have better candidates who respect the Constitution is to join the Republican Party at the grass roots and make it happen. It’s a numbers game. The more conservatives we have in the Party in the precinct committeemen ranks, the more likely it will be that we’ll get better elected leadership within the Party and in the general elections. Michael Steele was elected not by registered Republicans but by the precinct committeemen in all fifty states.

Also, you can go to http://www.redstate.com to learn more, too. Just type in the words precinct and committeeman into the search pane and hit the search button and links to a lot of good info will be presented too you.

Thank you.

Cold Warrior

I am only one. But I am a conservative Republican precinct committeeman and desperately trying to get other Constitution-loving conservatives and libertarians to do the same.

Why, do we listen to these cowards? That’s right the people in Mass., are fricking idiots just like the idiots in California.

John “Lurch” Kerry is one of a few idiot’s that either have or want to divert funds intended for our TROOPS, to go for a stupid We Love Ted Kennedy Shrine.

Don’t care if you’re a Republican or a member of the New American Communist Party the enemies don’t care about that when they kill our people with Iranian Arms.

Funny how Lurch and his folks wanted America to pass his Master’s Scam without anyone reading it. And that was because it was/is bad Voodoo, but our people in a COMBAT ZONE are in dire need and they want to take their time and drag their feet?

Obama and his coward buddies like Kerry need to get thrown out of office. We need to refocus our national direction. And purge the dead weight.

Yup. He was there a WHOLE 4 MONTHS. While there he had a videorecorder with him at all times, except for when he shot himself in the a$$, and when he “Accidently slipped into Cambodia.”
He also threw his, er, I mean someone else’s medals in the Potomac when he came back.
Ergo, his whole 4 MONTHS was a freakin publicity stunt, just like his career and private life.

On January 31, 1971, members of Vietnam Veterans Against the War (VVAW) met in a Detroit hotel to discuss war crimes they claimed to have participated in or witnessed during their combat tours in Vietnam. During the next three days, more than 100 Vietnam veterans and 16 civilians gave anguished, emotional testimony describing hundreds of atrocities against innocent civilians in South Vietnam, including rape, arson, torture, murder, and the shelling or napalming of entire villages. The witnesses stated that these acts were being committed casually and routinely, under orders, as a matter of policy…

When NFL player-turned-Army Ranger Pat Tillman died at the hands of US troops in a case of “friendly fire,” the spin machine at the Pentagon went into overdrive. Rumsfeld and company couldn’t have their most high-profile soldier dying in such an inelegant fashion, especially with the release of those pesky photos from Abu Ghraib hitting the airwaves. So an obscene lie was told to Tillman’s family, his friends and the American public. The chickenhawks in charge, whose only exposure to war was watching John Wayne movies, claimed that he died charging a hill and was cut down by the radical Islamic enemies of freedom. In the weeks preceding his death, Tillman was beginning to question what exactly he was fighting for, telling friends that he believed the war in Iraq was ” [expletive] illegal.” He may not have known what he was fighting for, but it’s now clear what he died for: public relations…

Congressional Democrats anxious to force a withdrawal of American forces from Iraq are frustrated by their inability to muster a veto-proof majority for legislation that would establish a firm date for retreat. But what they cannot do directly they are now working hard to do indirectly.

According to Defense Secretary Robert Gates, Incirlik Air Base near Adana, Turkey is the transshipment point for about 70% of all air cargo (including 33% of the fuel) going to supply US forces in Iraq. Included are about 95% of the new “MRAP” — mine-resistant, ambush-protected — vehicles designed to save the lives of American troops. Turkey wasn’t always this helpful. In 2003, the Turks refused permission for the 4th Infantry Division to enter Iraq through Turkey.

Turkey’s Erdogan government has indicated that if the House of Representatives takes action on a non-binding resolution being pushed by Speaker Pelosi, Turkey might revoke our ability to use Incirlik as a waypoint for Iraq supplies…

Marine Names Murtha in Defamation Suit / Congressman Discussed Killings Involving Serviceman’s Squad in Haditha, Iraq By Josh White Washington Post Staff Writer Wednesday, August 2, 2006

A Marine Corps staff sergeant who led the squad accused of killing two dozen civilians in Haditha, Iraq, will file a lawsuit today in federal court in Washington claiming that Rep. John P. Murtha (D-Pa.) defamed him when the congressman made public comments about the incident earlier this year.

Attorneys for Frank D. Wuterich, 26, argue in court papers that Murtha tarnished the Marine’s reputation by telling news organizations in May that the Marine unit cracked after a roadside bomb killed one of its members and that the troops “killed innocent civilians in cold blood.” Murtha also said repeatedly that the incident was covered up….

As soon as Obama became president, the war was lost. he wouldn’t dare send more troops to win the conflict. For a long time the U.S. will be seen as the worlds kicking post. The next president should promise to not send troops for international conflicts that don’t concern us. It’s just time to say ‘no’ to them. When they are finally hit with islamic terrorism, it will be too late to say ‘oh, now were with you.’

MIke   October 20th, 2009 - 8:04 pm

These Buffoons, Obama and Kerry do not understand what their roles are. As President, and Senator, they are mere ‘politicans’. Politicians ‘do not’ understand the intricacies of war fighting. They are not experts in the field of battle. It is the job of the general that sets troop strength and armaments in the field of battle. So Mr. President, if you General needs an additional 40,000 troops, gives it to him! What ever he needs, armor, tanks, give it to him!!! Stop micro managing this war from Washington DC. (Might I remind you, this is how we lost in Vietnam. Politicians telling Generals where and which huts to bomb. ) It is the job of the president to set policy. Leave it to the Generals and the Commanders on the ground to fight their war strategy.
Mr. President, please read ‘Sun Tzu, the Art of War’ before you make anymore mistakes.
