Obama would rather keep that little fact hidden
As he justified sending 30,000 more troops to Afghanistan at a cost of $30 billion a year,President Barack Obama’s description Tuesday of the al Qaeda "cancer"in that country left out one key fact:U.S. intelligence officials have concluded there are only about 100 al Qaeda fighters in the entire country.
A senior U.S. intelligence official told ABCNews.com the approximate estimate of 100 al Qaeda members left in Afghanistan reflects the conclusion of American intelligence agencies and the Defense Department.
The relatively small number was part of the intelligence passed on to the White House as President Obama conducted his deliberations.
President Obama made only a vague reference to the size of the al Qaeda presence in his speech at West Point,when he said,"al Qaeda has not reemerged in Afghanistan in the same number as before 9/11,but they retain their safe havens along the border."
HEY,Bumbler-in Chief,do you listen to anyone. Don't make decisions for only yourself,Its the Americans People and America that is at stake. You will be gone soon and remembered as the WORST president in the history of the United States of America.
The smiling "SVUGGIE listens to no one….Someone told him how smart he was and like all of them he believes and believed them…That is why he and his wife were able to use affirmative action…
I doubt he could even count to one hundred he will be known in history for the worst ever President of this great USA
