Obama to send 30,000 more troops to Afghanistan

[LBJefferies]

The absolute stupidity and ignorance from a few teenagers here is absolutely stunning. I wonder if they travelled even further than their county line... Because if they did, they would have realized that whatever happens in a country always affects another. The same dumbasses seem to also have forgotten that in their Afghanistan failure, they brought a few other countries with them.

So as for the little fuckhead you suggested that US affairs shall only be commented by US citizens, I'd remind him that as the US have brought many other countries in their shit, the other countries have the right to comment on the debacle. Canadian, British, Dutch, Afghan soldiers have died too, because Rumfeld didn't act up. So shut the fuck up and start using your brains.

The sad part is that Blunt is in his 50's and STILL hasn't learned to use his brain.

hey whoa man! all i said was i didn't have a problem with non-US citizens taking part in these conversations, i just wondered why everyone is so much more interested in our government's doings than we are in other government's doings. yeah ok its because of the war, i see that, but maybe also because it is such a great conversation piece and something to get pissed off about.

Now note that I never said anything bad about Canada at all. I have absolutely nothing against Canada, and I have been to Canada on several occasions (Niagra Falls). I am a Conservative but I do not stick to the stereotype created by non-conservatives that I hate every country other than mine. I actually am a citizen of Finland just as much as I am a citizen of the US.

because no one gives a flying fuck about Canadian government... Canada has their own deference ministry (of some sort I hope), and US didn't force them to send all 2 guys with sporks overseas.

Maybe, Lee, you should focus on where Canada fucked up? Maybe, the fact that global economy became so dependent on one country that they're all collapsing one by one.

Go Obama.

[LBJefferies]

ha ha! actually, my friend, i am criticizing the fact that one of Obama'a main points was to lessen troops during the election, and now he is doing the opposite.

The fact that troops are being increased is not the criticizing point, but the fact that he said one thing and is doing another.

Now with a republican president, at least he would have said in his campaign that he would increase troops, and then he would have went ahead and did it.

see my point?

to condense it even further: Obama = hypocritical.

actually you're an idiot.

Obama said during the election that he was going to wind down things in Iraq and focus on Afghanistan. He is following through exactly with what he said.

[hoveringuy]

I've been to Afghanistan. I have the t-shirt. Spent 6 months at Bagram helping the Army with IED's.

What I can't figure is where they will put 30,000 troops?

There is no Howard Johnson or Ramada there. Even Bagram was overlowing a few years ago with its resources strained. Everything to house, feed and support those 30,000 troops needs to be trucked in through Pakistan.

Even then, 30,0000 troops will make absolutely no difference. Trust me...

It would be cheaper and more effective just to bribe all of the Afghanis.

oh bummer, i just got called an idiot by a person who doesn't know me from Adam! This must mean that i am in fact an idiot. Good thing you let me know, i was here thinking i was a genius this whole time! heh, saved me from some embarrassment later!

gosh, i better just quit arguing now, since it has been discovered that I am an idiot!

[Bimmerman325i]

Well, I must be the only person here who voted (with reservations) for Obama and who doesn't have a problem with this. He did say during the campaign that he was going to focus on Afghanistan. At the end of the campaign, the situation there began declining...sending troops makes sense now, but did not during the campaign. Circumstances change.

oh noez!

The best part about this thread is that we all agree that Canada sucks balls.

and

Lee, i really think you should show some restraint as a canadian vendor

man that cut deep. i love the fact youre in favor of this douche sending more troops with the stipulation they will be pulled out in 6 months. let me ask you something dumbass...
if you were the bad guy in afghanistan and you knew the USA would pull out in 6 months what would you do?? if you commit troops you dont reveal a timeline. this just shows again and again obama has no business running anything higher level than a kool aid stand. you are the weakest fuck ive ever come across with zero backbone. so little in fact you couldnt trust yourself to stay away from r3v so you have a mod delete your old account. load the bong holmsie. take the edge off

ehhh everyone is entitled to their opinion. i dont agree with lee's but i would hope members could separate opinions from business. i think most do because i sell to a lot of guys on here i insult and pick on. they all know its part of the game. im running lees kits on my car even though hes totally off base politically

[Massive Lee]

I have an idea, which perhaps a few of you guys will agree on. If you don't like my opinions as a vendor, don't buy off me. Period. A few leechess have already expressed the idea a couple of years ago, that anybody who has something to sell should be lobotomized and opinion-free. Sorry. Not in my book. I don't share Blunt's tastes for young boys, but I still buy stuff off him.

And to those I have offended in this thread. I'd suggest to reread it from the beggining and sharpen your comprehension skillzzzz, as you'll find nothing offensive, pro or anti-Republican/Democrate/US whatsoever. You'll just find an article from a UK newspaper... So put another Tampax in your waffleswaffleswaffleswaffles until your periods are over ... ;)

I make an effort to stay out of off-topic both here and on other US-based car forums (ESPECIALLY BIMMERFORUMS). I've stumbled in seen a few of your polical/social posts over the past while, and even though I've never had any personal contact with you, I usually 100% agree with your opinion. I'd never bother posting my personal thoughts though, as it's like talking to a brick wall. I think the anonymity of a forum lets people become extremely brave; the amount of racist/prejudice/ignorant opinions shared openly (and supported by others) is pretty damn scary. Hell I've argued over putting members in timeout in response to (in my opinion) insanely racist remarks with the mod staff in the past and gotten nowhere. Not saying that any of this is happening in this thread, just sharing how bad the situation is.

Just do what I do, and steer clear.
