Q: When do US airstrikes in Pakistan actually kill Al Qaeda and Taliban “fighters,” and not “innocent women and children?”
A: When they are ordered by Barack Obama
"
SLAMABAD, Pakistan — Two missiles fired from American drone aircraft killed more than 30 people, including Al Qaeda and Taliban fighters, near the Pakistani border with Afghanistan Saturday , according to a Pakistani intelligence official and local residents."

Wow! He didn't bomb an orphanage?
Maybe he's just got worse aim than Bush did.

Obama's probably just trying to avenge some old enemy of one of his fathers.

Nah. He must be reading some doctrine and following it to the letter.

Obama the great warrior?
Swampy does it again. Who was the last real warrior to lead our nation swampthing?
Was it GWB who served as a Lieutenant?
Was it Bill Clinton who took a deferment?
Was it GW who flew fighter missions as a Lieutenant Junior Grade in the Navy?
Was it Ronald Reagan who served as a Captain in the Army?
Was it Jimmy Carter who served on a submarine as a Lieutenant in the Navy?
Was it Gerald Ford who served as a Lieutenant Commander in the Navy?
Was it Richard Nixon who served as a Lieutenant Commander in the Navy?
Was it Lyndon Johnson who served as a Lieutenant Commander in the Navy?
Was it John Kennedy who served as a Lieutenant Junior Grade in the Navy?
or was it perhaps
Dwight D. Eisenhower who served as a Five Star General of the Army and who warned us of the dangers the Military/Industrial complex posed to our country?
Which of these represent "warrior" to you Swampy?

George W. Bush, the Great Warrior, took us to war because the psycho piss-ant thought it would make him look like a man to his Daddy, because he had fscked up everything he did. The chickensh!t has caused the deaths of hundreds of thousands of innocent people and ruined the lives of MILLIONS of people around the world. I hope he burns in hell.

At first I was amused by the hypocrisy of the Obama enthusiasts (especially in this forum). Now it has become much more troubling. Right is right, wrong is wrong. You cannot cover up and marginalize wrong just because we have a charismatic leader doing it. Whether it is Bush or Obama, Karl or Rahm, right is still right and wrong is still wrong.
If you personally blame Bush for everything bad that happens, then you must at least show some concern for similar action by our new leader. I think you are giving them both too much credit for their influence. I think the real blame should be pushed on the dolts who run the Senate. These are not smart people with the best interest of the people they represent (Dem or Repub). They are power hungry buearocrats who are in it for themselves only. Short term gains as long as it benefits their current power or support their re-election efforts.
Everything that you crucified Bush for is being justified and rationalized as being OK now that Obama is our leader.
This is especially disturbing after seeing posts like Dennis S above. I hope your hatred for Bush hasn't overtaken your life as much as it sounds.
