FACT CHECK: Obama skims over some Afghan realities. Doesn't mention 'victory' in speech

President Obama is not a Wartime President, is not a Pro-
America President and is not an inspirational President to the American People or America’s Troops… No Matter How Often the Lame Stream Tries to Tell Us What a Great Speaker He Is!

There was not enthusiasm, no determination, no anger, no inspiration in Obama’s speech to the cadets at West Point and to the American People. Per Germany’s Der Spiegel the cadets present at Obama’s speech were coached yesterday to respond to his speech enthusiastically! (and still were luke warm).

And, did you know that General McCrystal actually asked Obama for 40 to 60 thousand troops; stressing that 40,000 would be a bare minimum if we wanted to win?!? What did he give him?? 30 to 35,000 almost 4 months later?

DER SPIEGEL: 'Never before has a speech by President Barack Obama felt as false'...

Can more U.S. troops in Afghanistan really convert Afghans into an effective fighting force? Will allies answer the call to do more? Is Pakistan truly prepared to take on the extremists who pose the greatest threat?

President Barack Obama said yes in his speech Tuesday laying out his plan to pour 30,000 more troops into the Afghan war, then begin pulling out in 18 months.

The prospects, though, at least judging by recent history, are mixed.

Reason 4,298 we despise liberals. Listen to Biden and Obama; idiots, hypocrites and total morons. This video is just more evidence of that.

NOTE ABOUT WEST POINT SPEECH- Can this annoying con artist of a President please expand his vocabulary? 'The status quo is unsustainable! Derisive, Dismissive, Insidious, Incredulous.'

Dude, 'shut up already.' Someone please yank the plug on that teleprompter so he can go back to being the 'real' Obama. The 'stuttering' Marxist 'community organizer' who doesn't like America or it's history.

Google 'The status quo is unsustainable Obama' and look how many times he says it. Israel, health care, Afghanistan, Israeli-Palestinian, the economy, the environment.

The reason we call Obama supporters 'idiots' is because they actually think this guy is a genius because he uses 'played out' phrases, when they can't see that Obama is conning the shit out of them. They should feel like idiots for not paying attention to WHAT he is saying instead of HOW he says it.

Fox: No Mention of 'Victory'? Click Here for Speech Analysis

President Obama, in a speech Tuesday that could define the rest of his presidency, laid out his plan to quickly send 30,000 more troops to Afghanistan to revive the struggling war effort while setting a preliminary timeline for withdrawal -- aiming to start handing over security roles to Afghan forces by July 2011.

"The status quo is unsustainable," Obama said as he outlined his case for a three-part strategy: more troops to bolster the military effort, a "civilian surge" to improve living conditions in the country and an increased focus on the United States' partnership with Pakistan.

The much-anticipated strategy decision is one of the most significant foreign policy moves of Obama's early presidency, and the White House is hoping the plan will achieve the tough task of appeasing the military, a war-weary public and the anti-war left. Read more here.
