“Drink lots of tea, eat lots of goat, and get to know the people. That’s why we’re here.“

All during his campaign, Barack Obama, promised to let Iraq go, and to fight in Afghanistan where we could engage the Taliban. Implementing that promise, the Obama administration has ordered 21,000 “additional” troops to Afghanistan, which will bring the total number of American forces to 68,000 by year end.

On Thursday of this week President Obama sent 4,000 Marines into the volatile province of Helmand, not to fight, but to nation-build. This follows the Colin Powell strategy of war: “if you break it you own it.” Yesterday, on Independence Day, two of those young warriors turned nation-builders were killed. Aaron Fairbairn was one of them.

America’s Commander in Chief personally placed those Marines in southern Afghanistan under the command of Brig. Gen. Lawrence D. Nicholson’s who, according to Diana West, ordered them to “drink lots of tea, eat lots of goat, and get to know the people. That’s why we’re here.” It’s called nation-building; it is the Colin Powell Strategy of War.

Barack Obama and the American Left want to fight only “Good Wars” and they see the building of Afghanistan into a nation as a way to use America’s military for “good” instead of for defense. Barack Obama and the United States government is staking the lives and limbs of these 68,000 young American warriors and billions of taxpayer dollars on their hope to do good. Unfortunately, there is no indication that the Afghan people will cooperate with Obama’s dream.

Colin Powell’s made-up rule for war, that — if you break it you own it — has already been debunked (both Presidents Bush followed it), so why is Barack Obama giving it another go? We need a new American strategy; possibly: “If you break it, you decide whether or not you want to own it.” What kind of arrogance is it for the West to go into an Islamic land to organize its tribes into one nation? Let them do their own nation-building, not us.

194 Things Obama Intends To Accomplish As President

During the campaign, Barack Obama promised many things to the America voters, and since even before the inauguration he has been working furiously to accomplish them. Of course, we all remember his Marxist promise to Joe the Plumber in 2008, when he said: “I think when you spread the wealth around, it’s good for everybody.” President Obama has already made good headway on accomplishing that particular goal.

On 22 November 2008, a blogger listed the “194 Things Barack Intends To Do As President. He abstracted these promises, as he says, “verbatim from Obama position papers.” The blogger said that these intentions of Barack Obama had been consistent throughout his presidential campaign and were not only “sensible,” but “achievable.” He continued: “All that is required is a smart executive, a stellar team and robust grass roots support for change,” which we know well that Barack Obama possesses in spades.

So, how’s that “smart executive” Obama doing on fulfilling his 194 goals in four years? Let’s see … that’s 48 1/2 goals per year, which comes to four per month. Obama has now been in office for five months, which means that he should have about twenty of these goals already accomplished, or else he stands little chance of succeeding in this lofty mission that he promised if American voters elected him.

Which twenty of these lofty, if not worthwhile, goals has Barack Obama already accomplished, pray tell? I’ve read much of the list, and I cannot find even one success. Can you?

We need some more lyrics describing how Obama-man can make abortion sound like a sunlit walk in the park, close Gitmo yet keep it open, and blame everything that he cannot get right on George Bush.
