I would provide a launching pad for terrorist, but the injury to U.S. relationship abroad would be terrible. Defeat and thats what it would be would produce a gaint recruiting poster for terrorist all over the world and embolded their efforts.Ron Russellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11220328678840317631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-388559448711486521.post-36784232579483748602009-10-31T14:00:01.695-04:002009-10-31T14:00:01.695-04:00This man only thinks about one thing: himself.

I really would like to think that his actions in going to Dover were genuine, or out of honor but he has consistently shown otherwise over the past 10 months. I think he's using the coffins photo-op as a part of his agenda to back out, or withdraw troops out of the war, he called a war of necessity. To leave Afghanistan would be a great detriment to our national security. I think he's one that has forgotten about 9/11 or chooses to ignore all of the realities related to 9/11.Teresahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16040553825059591114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-388559448711486521.post-77261896582340017012009-10-31T12:54:35.442-04:002009-10-31T12:54:35.442-04:00It's all a ploy to gain favorability from the ...It's all a ploy to gain favorability from the military...<br />he still hates them...only more so, becauses he has to do this against his own wishes. <br /><br />I could see this coming miles away!Storm'n Norm'nhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10513268787691532681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-388559448711486521.post-54186665367630549412009-10-31T01:33:44.871-04:002009-10-31T01:33:44.871-04:00On the plus side, he is supposed to do these thing...On the plus side, he is supposed to do these things. HOWEVER, this is the guy who doesn't respect the pledge, and we can't forget the whole flag pin thing. So, he is supposed to do it, but he's using our dead as a photo-op. A lesson he probably learned from all the former Clinitoids that work for him. Clinton was the MASTER of the photo-op.Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18327435952188104946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-388559448711486521.post-69045734764020135752009-10-31T01:12:53.021-04:002009-10-31T01:12:53.021-04:00"Fish ain't biting that worm" I like..."Fish ain't biting that worm" I like that phrase.

It's their ideological background; that is the calling card of the progressive left in the post-Soviet world. Communism and socialism are no longer four-letter words, and we're seeing the inevitable consequence of such: academicians playing sea-monkey with the government because socialism works, "it just has to be implemented properly".Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-388559448711486521.post-89800391506167683512009-10-30T17:37:21.938-04:002009-10-30T17:37:21.938-04:00His motives are NEVER pure.

Time is never thick and only history has depth. Time is thin. I will not judge his act, but with the upcoming decision on Afghanistan is his sights I leave all possibiltues open---good and bad. And the act if geninue is not any greater or less than Bush's giving up golf---He gave up one evening on the trip to Dover and Bush many on the links. Statements like that are out of place. I feel Bush to be an honorable man and the jury is out on the modern day socialist this man who would destroy in a few years what its taken over 200 hundred years to build. This current occupant of the White House is a counter-revolutionary who would over-turn the American revolution and set us on a path to some form of totalitarian socialism. I know you think that is far out and I understand, this is however how I feel and I am not alone in my thinking. Barack Himself Obama and those around him are a real and present danger to the American of my fathers, the America of the founders, and the American I love. And those who foolish stand with him are either blind, stupid or represent the voices of the radical revolutionary change he embraces. I think you David fall into that last group and theirs nothing I can do about those people. There is hope however for the other groups as they are part of the vast American middle that can be swayed. I've said all I'm going to on this issue. Thanks for your visit David and goodbye.Ron Russellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11220328678840317631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-388559448711486521.post-9866395245420185902009-10-30T13:38:20.025-04:002009-10-30T13:38:20.025-04:00Political ploy..

It should have been sobering for him to witness these bodies of our fallen returning. Sure it is an act, an act to show the American people his respect for these fallen and the responsibility he assumes for it. It's more of a sign of respect for them than merely giving up golf.
