		<description>&quot;...so why does Obama get privacy in this moment?&quot;

It&#039;s all part of that &quot;transparency&quot; thing he talks about.  Not exactly sure how it works &#039;cuz he hasn&#039;t told us yet.  But I looked it up in the Baracktionary (new word, just made it up) and it says, &lt;b&gt;transparency - noun - The art of closing all doors, windows and method of communicating with concerned individuals who want to know what you&#039;re up to, so that you can tell them what you did, instead of having them watch. &lt;/b&gt;

The Baracktionary is a handy tool for us unlearn-ed, unwashed and ignorant conservatives but in its preamble, it says, &quot;In most cases, if not all, the reader is advised to look up the antonym for any/all words used by Obama, thus speeding the process of finding its actual meaning.  However, many words like &quot;friend&quot;, &quot;environment&quot;, &quot;care&quot;, &quot;intention&quot; and so on have several meanings and thus, the reader must also consult a calendar, the weather, time-of-day and an expensive medium in order to get its precise meaning for that instant.  And even that will be incorrect as time passes.&quot;</description>

		<description>Obama made public the memos Bush&#039;s justice department lawyers wrote giving him legal advice, so why does Obama get privacy in this moment?  I thought the basic media agenda for the last 60 years has been to make sure everything that goes on in the defense department is public knowledge.  In this case I would almost even call Gen McChrystal a whistleblower.</description>

		<description>It&#039;s like this, whenever I hear this &quot;president&quot; get asked a question about something, and his answer is, &quot;Look, I have a lot more important things to worry about right now&quot;, it&#039;s a diversionary statement on the face of it, but it&#039;s also an indicator of something more troubling. 

First, he&#039;s belittling the question and the person who asked it.  It&#039;s a common attribute among narcissists like him.  He&#039;s actually saying &quot;You really have the gall to ask me that, you little snert?&quot;

Second, it&#039;s deflecting the responsibility of whatever the subject is about.  Either he hasn&#039;t got an answer or truly, he doesn&#039;t care about the subject at hand.  But most importantly, he is largely unable to fashion a cohesive thought into words about same.

When he was doing other things and was asked about running GM, he said, &quot;Hey guys, I have a lot more to worry about than running a car company...&quot;

And he used Afghanistan to excuse himself from that subject matter.  Now...with Afghanistan more of an &quot;up-front&quot; issue, he deflects it by claiming the need for &quot;privacy&quot;.  

Every day that passes my ire and hatred for this man grows.</description>

		<description>Obama&#039;s #1 priority is aiding the terrorists that are worse than any horror, monster, science fiction movie every made. Obama has empathy for these satanic and demon possessed animals. The apple doesn&#039;t fall far from the cart.</description>

		<description>Long time since my last post but I need your help here.  My grandson was involved in the &quot;firefight&quot; in Nuristan province where we lost 8 more Warrior Heroes.  No matter what Obama is thinking or how inept he obviously is, or how corrupt the rest of his administration obviously is, we have boots on the ground in both Afghanistan and Iraq.  People like us need to hold the line for the Generals who are supposed to be running the war and who know the situation and what is needed on the ground.

What I&#039;m asking is that everyone here and on a few other blogs I read and post to flood the WH with emails/letters/phone calls demanding Obama support the needs and requests of his Generals in support of our troops on the ground.  More that one administration got off easy in Vietnam because communication with them wasn&#039;t as easy or instant as it is now.  Let&#039;s not let Obama and his band of idiots off easy this time.  Demand decisions that will result in a positive outcome or a decision to pull out now if that isn&#039;t the ultimate goal.  Our Warriors deserve nothing less.

Thanks for any support you can give in this endeavor.

		<description>It&#039;s never been a private issue, and Obama knew General McChrystal was giving that speech the day he flew him to meet him in Copenhagen, so Obama could get away with taking Air Force One. And Obama had photo&#039;s taken of the 25 minute meeting of Air Force One, so if Obama&#039;s 
production company can listen in, what&#039;s the secret?  
I guess Obama wanted the meeting photo&#039;d for his scrap-book, or proof that he made a business trip out of the Olympic b.s. 

Wonder what Chicago is going to do with all that Olympic 2013 memorabilia they already paid for.</description>

		<description>The failure of generals and commander&#039;s in chief to engage in war in all its ugly reality is why we are here at this moronic juncture.  Our country with all its tools and weaponry and marvelous soldiers chooses daily to hamstring itself in politics and in so doing, chooses to lose.  War is not a negotiation.  War is to win or lose.  There is no middle ground where you should ask your enemy for permission to wage war.  If you have an enemy and that enemy has &quot;called you out&quot;, if you go, you damn well better intend to win.  Anything less is a waste of your resources.  For the public to tolerate anything less than a win after sending up its best and brightest assets is inexcusable.</description>

		<description>Me, too.  But I&#039;m starting to like McChrystal a lot more.  I think he figured out that they didn&#039;t bring in a new guy to win the war.  They brought him in so they could let the thing tank and hang it all around his neck.  Obama could make the left happy by losing and still walk away with his hands clean.
But McChrystal wrecked that by going public, and now they&#039;re whining about privacy. 
If Petraeus had gone public against Bush, he would have been a hero.  
But, of course, the rules have changed.</description>

		<description>&quot;A &quot;snap decision&quot; on whether to add more U.S troops would be counterproductive, Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton said Monday.&quot;

Wish that was the consensus with bank bailouts, auto bailouts and so on.  But then, they needed to do that immediately.  Not so with US soldiers&#039; lives in the balance. Take all the time you need, Barry;  They&#039;re not going anywhere.</description>
