There is no timeline

He has no timeline for bringing them back. If you believe what he says, then as they say "I've got a bridge for sale". He has done nothing at all with what he promised during his campaign.

There is no light at the end of the tunnel. He will either keep them there and say it's not responsible to bring them home, or he will send them to another dangerous region. He has done nothing so far to show he cares anything about our troops.

Our troops need to be funded, but we also need to bring them home. Why do you say the GOP is not funding the troops. They ARE funding the troops. You can't just make up something because you don't like the conservatives.

But I repeat...there is no timeline and he has no plan to bring our troops home. There will always be a war that he needs them for and if there isn't one he will create one. Especially now in light of what is happening in the other countries, he will be deverting them to that region.

You really need to look at the timeline on that...(sm)
what a joke!

Well, there is a timeline of sorts....
First he said at 16 months he would look at a phased withdrawal. That has been lengthened now to 24 months. But in essence, you are correct...he will just keep moving it out, because he knows, just like the prior admin knows, you can't just pick up and leave. Sounded good tho as a campaign slogan didn't it...remember..."We don't belong there, we never belonged there, and as soon as I am elected I will begin withdrawal...." yeah, right, barry from chicago. lol.

Yeah, he has extended the timeline, but......(sm)

at least there is a timeline. That means there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Would you prefer that our troops go without funding in the meantime just to prove a point? That's what the GOP is doing. They are going on with that tit-for-tat war, being the party of no, just to oppose anything Obama does, with no regard whatsoever to the needs of our military.

Check your own timeline. He was not flying over New Orleans...
when the levee breached. He was on the ground in Arizona. The corps of engineers had been telling New Orleans and the state of LA that the levees would not hold in a bad storm, but they chose to spend the money elsewhere.

Let's be real here. The whole city is below sea level. As engineers have said even since Katrina, in a huge storm like Katrina and gustav, they might not hold. Nothing Bush can do about that.

That is a ridiculous, mean statement. I repeat...if Obama had been present, he would have been going about his usual day as President also, expecting people to do their jobs. And if he suggests otherwise, I would be the first to call him a liar.

The hurricane is what killed people. George Bush did not kill people.

If he had been a Democratic president, would you be saying this? Of course you wouldn't, you would be defending him right down the line.

That is the difference between you a hard line party follower, and me, an independent not beholden to ANY party. I would be defending that President no matter WHAT party he was in. THe people he trusted to do the job failed him. The state and local authorities failed their constituents.

And bottom line...it was the hurricane that killed people and destroyed property. Not George Bush. Just like it will be the hurricane this time, but EVERYONE learned from the last one, including state and local authorities, and the Republican governor of Louisianna has done an outstanding job in moving that along. Former Dem Governor Blanco is no longer in politics. Wonder why that is.

That being said...it was no one person's fault. All can share some of the blame.

But don't see you attacking anyone but George Bush.

Wonder why THAT is?
