Character matters. Democrats have none. For all their mewling about body counts, we’ve heard next to nothing (actually, nothing) about the brave men and women who have been wounded or killed fighting the Democrat parties rhetorical ‘Good War’ over in Afghanistan, since Obama has been in charge.

Under former President George W. Bush, 575 American soldiers died and fewer than 3,000 were wounded in Afghanistan. This means under Obama, at least 1,405 soldiers have died and nearly 15,000 additional soldiers have been wounded, which means 70% of the deaths and nearly 80% of the injuries in Afghanistan have occurred under Obama’s watch.

(emphasis mine)

New Hampshire Democrats are on the hook for this…and not just that pair of Hypocrat harpies running for congress, Carol-Ann-Shea-McKluster.

Proud of President Obama

For the first time in my life I am finally proud of President Obama!!

President Obama stood up for the gay soldier who asked a question at the last Republican debate. It is so rare that President Obama or any leftist shows respect or says anything positive about our soldiers, that we need to recognize and appreciate it when it happens.

Yes, I would have been prouder of him if President Obama had actually defended our soldier from a real slander, derision, or attack. For example, if someone had actually “boo’d” the soldier, then I would have been more proud of him. Since President Obama presents a false picture suggesting that our soldier was “boo’d” when he wasn’t (it was the soldier‘s question that got a few “boo“s), that takes away from the recognition President Obama deserves.
