Mike Malloy just reminded me that Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize

1. I guess after you win that prize you're free to get your war on

[democrat2thecore]

2. **Increasing** troops is the NIXON way to bring "peace." (with honor, of course).....sad, huh? -nt

[eleny]

4. And we know how that policy worked out for us

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

3. Lousy cheerleading Norwegians.

[eleny]

5. Maybe they wre trying to nudge him in the right direction

Make him aware of what they think he's capable of accomplishing. Well, they tried.

[SemiCharmedQuark]

6. The peace prize doesn't mean you are a peaceful person.

It is for a specific act that guides the world towards peace. Hence why Kissinger and Teddy "I LOVE War" Roosevelt got one.

[eleny]

7. The timing of all this is disturbing eom

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

8. In what respect, Charlie?

[eleny]

10. You'll know when the caskets come rolling home, Sarah

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

14. What's that got to do with timing?

[FrenchieCat]

9. Perhaps that's why he's going to end two wars instead of just one?

[eleny]

11. Hey, shouldn't you be packing your stuff for your enlistment on Wednesday?

After all, your itching to help lift the burden of multiple tours of duty from the shoulders of our troops.

[FrenchieCat]

12. I'm not sure why you get to tell me what to do?

How did that happen? :shrug:

Hell, you forgot we were even in Afghanistan until half past 12....now it is the only issue you can comment on.

But go ahead sis, I'm not here to tell you what to do.
I not only talk about freedom of speech for all,
I actually practice what I preach.

Perhaps you can run for President and get your instant peace party on.

[eleny]

13. You've been monitoring the content of my posts? Yikes.

[FrenchieCat]

15. A lot of your comments were made been in threads that I started..doh

where you basically order me to sign up over and over again,
simply because I was aware of the Afghanistan war since about 8 years ago
......and because I also know what Obama said when he was running,
as well what HIllary said they'd do about it....and neither, nor anyone else
said they'd pull out at the first opportunity.

[eleny]

18. You have to expect criticism from those of us with anti war positions

If you support the president's policy of escalation then escalate your butt into the service.

I don't care who said what during the campaign. A decision to escalate is unacceptable.

[FrenchieCat]

20. That's your decision, and you are welcome to it.

I just don't need to be told what to do based on what I believe....
which in this case is wait till I hear what is said tomorrow,
because as a Liberal, I have an open mind, considering the background on this
particular issue.

And that's good for you don't care what is said during campaigns.
We really don't have to agree....

[eleny]

21. You ought to consider how it would be if you were on the battlefield

After all, it's what you expect from the troops. If you bristle at being told to go enlist, then you're no better than any chickenhawk.

Darn right we don't have to agree. This is Democratic Underground not Obama Central. Having caucused and voted for him, I get to express my disgust at his destructive policy and to challenge those, like you, who support it.

Now I'll say goodnight as it's time for bed around here. Take the last word if you feel the need.

[Clio the Leo]

23. We all have ...... we've been watching you.........

..... saving your posts in our browsers cache for later viewing. (But only for two-weeks, max)

[Clio the Leo]

22. The President is NOT going to waste our most valuable weapon on the Taliban.....

.... he's saving Frenchie Cat for the MARTIANS!!!! :patriot:



(that's a compliment btw)

[CakeGrrl]

16. One would think you'd remember something that bugs you so much. n/t

[eleny]

19. It didn't bug me at the time but gave me hope

Tonight, on the eve of escalating aggression it's real tough.

[The_Casual_Observer]

17. Everybody's crying peace on earth,.... just as soon as we win this war

Mose Allison


Kill kill kill for peace!
