Obama vs. Obama – Afghanistan edition

More blue on blue violence

Huffington Post Video Editor Ben Craw has put together a devastating video of President Obama debating Senator Obama about Obama’s Afghanistan war strategy.

Craw accomplished this fete using clips of Senator Obama questioning Rice about Iraq in January 2007 with comments President Obama has made about his own Afghan exit strategy in a speech in March 2009, an interview with CBS’s “60 Minutes” in March 2009, an address to the nation in December 2009, remarks to the troops in Afghanistan in March, an interview with ABC in April, and an appearance on ABC’s “The View” in July.

Watch for yourself:

I can’t decide which is more infuriating, that the biased media wing of the Democrat party gives Obama a pass on such outrageous inconsistency, or that Obama always tries to be on both sides of so many issues. Just how stupid does the JournolLst crowd think the American people are?

Like Obama has done with issue after issue, his “new strategy” for the War in Afghanistan tries to have it both ways. Obama’s strategy is a Bush-like surge, but with a timetable for ending, not winning the war.

I remain an unrepentant supporter of the war against terror the Islamic extremists have forced upon us, but I find it very hard to support Obama’s Afghan “new strategy” because of his misguided artificial withdrawal date. As I have written before, a war our leaders are not willing to fight to win, is not a war we should fight.

    In this case, it is our men and women in the military. Unfortunately, it is they who have to carry out a strategy which emanates from the political clown act that is the Obama Administration.

    Every last one of these Bozo’s in the civilian chain should be ashamed of their incompetent, tepid, disastrous and foolish actions.

    … but, in all honesty, I don’t see a plausible set of goals and objectives for US military action in Afghanistan. I can’t quit wrap my arms around what it is we hope to accomplish.

    because he is still looking into the pool of water and likes what he sees in his own reflection.
    He despises the military. You can’t win a war with clowns who think they are gods. I really pity our fine soldiers. I won’t pity the politicians
    that get the ax in November. I just wish the head clown would be one
    of them.

    The danger to America is not Barack Obama but a citizenry capable of
    entrusting a man like him with the Presidency. It will be far easier
    to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore
    the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate
    willing to have such a man for their president. The problem is much
    deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of
    what ails America. Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind
    anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince.
    The Republic can survive a Barack Obama, who is, after all, merely a
    fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those
    who made him their president.”
