Rove Strikes Back at WH Criticism of Bush Administration’s Afghanistan Policy

"Literally the Obama transition team and the Bush White House agreed that that report would not be issued by President Bush and his administration but instead would be handed over so President Obama would have time to look at it and adopt it."

The Obama team is acting like children on pretty much every issue. They are arrogant, punk kids, with no mature concept of real life. And they of course they can’t do anything but lie their moronic butts off.

Obama is not strong enough to carry his huge ego he has to have Gibbs and Assrod to help carry the load. I guess those three stooges will fight over who gets to push the nuclear button. I would call them idiots but at this point that would be a put down to idiots.

All the news media except FOX are in Obama’s pocket. They worked 24/7 to elect him and now they put a positive spin on everything he says and does.

IF they were nonpartisan and objective they would have report on and exposed ACORN, NEA, 35 CZARS, George Soros, General Electric, Goldman Sacks, misnamed Stimulus Bill, Cap and Trade Bill, TARP II, Omnibus Spending Bill, and slandering General McChrystal.

Rove looks like an adult baby. I guess that is a good defense against being called a war criminal.

Assrod. That is funny!!!

This is the first time I’ve heard that Bush had an Afghanistan policy.

It can’t be this administration’s fault. Remember, Dwight Eisenhower was president from 1956 to 1960 and probably did something that is keeping Obama from doing his job. You know, unless we turn off talk radio, keep Fox News from reporting, and tax rich people near 100%, we’re never going to get our country back!
/sarc off.

Rove is right. If you remember the coverage. Afghanistan was the one that was making the most improvements before the surge in Iraq, that is why we surged in Iraq and not in Afghanistan. Then after we surged and basically “succeeded” in Iraq we were beginning to strengthen Afghanistan. People wanted out of Iraq because so many soldiers were dying there and Obama knew this. The polls all showed it. That is why Obama turned on Iraq and said we need to put our emphasis in Afghanistan as were doing. Now he is deciding to stall and the best way to do that is by blaming Bush and saying we are rewriting our strategies. How do you refute that since they should be Top Secret. The problem is that as the polls said today, recruitment has jumped in a staggering amount since Obama became president and they know this. That is why they are stalling and it is just emboldening our enemies.

Why is it that Rove always makes concise sound arguments? He makes buffons like Axelrod & Jarrett look like tools.

Uh…wha?

Obama is stalling. He needs the votes necessary to pass Health Care Reform. Why would he risk losing votes from Democrats on Health Care who are against the war. He needs every vote he can get. Too bad he is risking military lives to acheive his political goals…
