Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
It's over. As soon as he declared a time line, and if he sticks to it (he will, he's an idiot with no military experience), we won't be able to achieve what we wanted.
It doesn't appear that he knows the history of Afghanistan, either. The Russians and the British (twice) tried to tame it, and went home- those that were left- with their tails between their legs. Another politician who feels he needs to use the military just because he can.Originally Posted by SA Friday

Stupid no-shoots....
Just another instance where Obama proves he's extremely ignorant on matters military.
He may as well have stated that he wasn't going to send any more troops. They can't do much in a year that's going to have any effect on the situation.
He's an disaster for this country.
I just find it extremely amusing that our "commander in chief" thinks he knows better than all the generals who have been doing this for 30+ years and have years of education and experience on the matter.
How much more pig-headed can you be?
Ditto. Obama just announced when the Taliban is going to win. This will work just as well as the bombing pauses during Vietnam did. As far as I'm concerned once Americans are put in harm's way that cause should be prosecuted to its fullest extent. No 'police actions', no half-measures. None of this crap about "We'll just do this" or "We'll leave on this date", or any other garbage that gives our enemies ANY sort of advantage.
We have the means to take care of these dirtbags, and then people like Obama say "Never mind. We weren't really serious." No wonder every two-bit tinpot dictator and taliban wannabe takes a shot at us whenever they want. They know that if they can make it politically incorrect or embarrasing, the U.S. Government will find a reason to do nothing. (There are times in the past they did it just because doing anything else would have been too much like work.) Pretty soon, every third world country will have nukes because nobody will do anything about it and they'll start telling us what we're gonna do, and threaten us otherwise. Then they'll whack us anyway.
How many people have already forgotten the lessons of 9/11? Seriously? We're going to put the 9/11 guys on trial in a civilian court, completely ignoring all precedent, so some idiot like Eric Holder can play like the big boys? They should have had a military tribunal like the illegal combatants they are, and EXECUTED. Period.
And waterboarding? Sleep deprivation? Loud music? Awwww, that's such a shame that we're being so mean to those poor unfortunates. Yes, we signed the Geneva Convention so we can't do anything really creative to make them talk, and that's fine. But I'd bet all the idiots out there complaining about how we're treating those scum would change their tune in a New York SECOND if it was them or one of theirs instead of Daniel Berg getting his head sawed off alive by those worthless cowards.
The best thing we could do for the Taliban, Al Qaeda and their ilk is terminate them with EXTREME prejudice. I'm all for putting those new, super penetrator bombs into their caves, using AC-130's on every taliban camp on the surface, and letting the Special Ops folks do their damn jobs! Because if those crackpots ever got hold of a nuke, rest assured it wouldn't bother them a single bit using it on us if they could figure out how, and they would eventually. I wonder how the liberals would try to sweep that under the carpet?
Flat out, it's better to fight this mess over there now, than over here later! I really don't want my kids and their kids having to deal with this mess. I'm sure they'll have their own without adding what should be ours to it. Look how well appeasement worked for Neville Chamberlain before WWII. Of course, Obama is already saddling them with enough debt for a lifetime.
I have a couple other areas I could rant about, but I'll save them for another time. Man, that felt good. I'll put the soap box away for a little while. God Bless America!
But what if one of the terrorists gets a fat lip?
"There are no finger prints under water."
Okay, you brought it up, so while I'm at it, I know a few Navy SEALs who damn well ought to be DECORATED for only giving the walking whale turd a fat lip, and not killing him in some creative, painful, interesting fashion as I'm sure they were almost compelled by their training and dedication to country to do.
Of course, while I'm sure they could have, I'm equally certain that they really wouldn't need to use those nasty, environmentally harmful, politically incorrect bullets to do it.
I raise my beer (right now, while I'm sitting here) to those guys. And desperately hope that someone somewhere does the right thing for them.
Now quit making me pull my soap box out!
Oh, sure. It's all fun and games until a terrorist gets a fat lip. Don't you understand that if we turn these special ops guys loose someone, maybe even a terrorist, might get seriously hurt.
First we put panties on their heads, then a fat lip. Next thing you know you warmongers are going to be saying it's OK to SHOOT them...with real bullets!
Jeez, Louise...
You and I were definitely on the same wavelength, Sturtle.
pardon my french, but obama is a fucking clown shoes president.
