Obama sends more troops over unannounced
In an unannounced move,President Obama is dispatching up to 15,000 additional U.S. troops to Afghanistan beyond the 21,000 he announced in March.
The additional troops are primarily support forces —such as engineers,medical personnel,intelligence experts and military police.
A Washington Post report published Tuesday said Obama dispatched 13,000 additional troops,but an unnamed defense official familiar with the process told Fox News that the number is closer to 15,000.
"Obama authorized the whole thing. The only thing you saw announced in a press release was the 21,000,"a defense official,speaking anonymously,told the Washington Post.
But in an interview with Fox News on Tuesday,a defense official refuted that the dispatch was "unannounced,"saying the decision to send 15,000 additional troops was part of a larger move to reach 68,000 troops in Afghanistan by year’s end —a move that Defense Secretary Robert Gates cleared with Obama in March,the official said.
THIS GUY HAS TROUBLE WITH THE TRUTH
Now he's being deceitful to both sides. He knows the lefties would be pissed if they knew he was sending troops in instead of sending troops home.
Very sneaky. "He who walks the fence is liable to get rupture!"
This guy has got to go!! He is the bottom of the barrel scum. We are in big trouble in this Country.
GET RID OF ILLEGAL OBAM-ASAP. HE IS THE SCUMMY OF SCUM ALONG WITH HIS CHICAGO MOB-CHEATS,CROOKS AND CORRUPTERS-IN WASHINGTON. NO COMMON SENSE OR TRUTH DO ANY OF THEM KNOW. GET RID OF THOSE COMMIES-NOW –N0W.
This anti-American,anti-white,Muslim Lying Chicago hood,does not know what the word TRUTH means. We must impeach!!!!!!!!!!
I signed a petition to impeach this clown,when it comes your way sign it! Wish we could do the same with the congress.
Well it's about time he did something positive. Sneaky or not,our guys can use the support. I've been in war and support is a great thing. My comments have nothing to do with Obama's good points,( I don't believe he has any) I just like the troops getting more of what they need over there.
GOD BLESS AMERICA!
The enemy dont need to know everytime we take a shit. Let Obama fight the war the way he wants to. He's the commander -in chief you know.
