Obama Accuses U.S. Of Civilian Air Massacres In Iraq

AP:
Answering a question on how he would refocus U.S. troops out of Iraq to better fight terrorism, he said, “We’ve to get the job done there and that requires us to have enough troops so that we’re not just air- raiding villages and killing civilians, which is causing enormous pressure over there.”

ANOVER, N.H. (AP) - Presidential hopeful Barack Obama was warned by a friendly voter Monday to avoid public spats with his Democratic rivals—but remarks he made later could add fuel to the criticism against him.

During a later appearance before about 800 people in Nashua, Obama made a comment likely to further the spats he was warned about.

Answering a question on how he would refocus U.S. troops out of Iraq to better fight terrorism, he said, “We’ve to get the job done there and that requires us to have enough troops so that we’re not just air- raiding villages and killing civilians, which is causing enormous pressure over there.”

Earlier this month, Obama drew criticism when he said he would send troops into Pakistan to hunt down terrorists even without local permission, if warranted.

A Republican National Committee spokeswoman said Obama’s characterization of the presidential campaign shows he’s unfit to lead.

“Unfortunately for Barack Obama, this campaign is not a fraternity hazing ritual, and Americans are not going to elect a rookie politician who has ditched his ‘politics of hope’ mantra and gone on the attack now that he’s dropping in the polls,” Amber Wilkerson said.

    So bareback hussein obama has learned from kerry how to smear our troops

    what do you expect from someone named hussein?

    what a complete piece of shit

  2. Dr D Semper FI

    The only pressure being created, is morons like this mcro-managing a war with no concept of what wars about. Please shut the fuck up, and tell that Cunt Hillary to shut the fuck up. I do not use the word cunt very often because it is a crude vile word, but it does discribe Hillary to a tee.P.S. does anyone know where the word came from, I started using the word around 1992, when Hillary came on the scene. I do not think I have used that word to describe any other person, notice i did not say woman. We need to come up to describe Democrats like Obama, Durbin, Kenedy, Bird, Schumer, Pelosi, Reid. This could be a new contest for PAT!

  3. Dr D Semper FI

    I meant, that we need a contest to describe Democrats similar to cunt, or in same vein.Semper Fi

  4. Kurt (the infidel)

    Air raiding villages? fuck you! this is just an unbelievable statement to make..The US is the only damn military on earth that tries this hard to limit civilian casualties at all cost and this guy says we’re “air raiding villages”..wow thats an outrageous claim to make from someone who doesnt know shit about our military..I dont care who people vote for on the Republican side except for Ron Paul who is just another DailyKos whacko..Just stay away from the Democrats, this is what they really think of our military

  5. D.C.

    This jackoff stepped on his crank last week. Now he is tripping over it!

    Open mouth……….switch feet! :roll:

  6. Joe M.

    How very interesting. Bush is criticized relentlessly for not knowing how to run the military and making public speaking gaffes. Every liberal makes it a mission to destroy Bush on this. I don’t hear the same whining and complaining about Obama who in the course of 1 month has said he would send troops to Pakistan (then later saying it was misunderstood…haha right) and now proposes that the military is just killing civilians. I don’t see how anyone can support him anymore. Doesn’t matter how great his other idea for the country might be…..these missteps are just too much.

  7. A. S. Wise- VA

    No surprise for me; these demoncrats will stop at nothing to endear themselves to the far left. Another fucking lie to slander and libel our troops who actually do discriminate in who they target, unlike what kookinich and hussein osama say.

  8. Grumpy

    Wow, this guy really has no clue as to what’s going on. While I would never vote for him under any circumstance, I didn’t dislike the guy until now. And people say Bush is an idiot?

  9. John Cunningham

    It’s like they can’t control themselves. It just has to pop out. Leftists have to eventually take a shot at the troops. It’s in their nature. Enemy to the front of me, democrats to the rear of me. Watch your backs, guys.

  10. sullly

    jesus what a dumbfuck…

    unreal

  12. TJ

    Republicans make controversial comments and they are placed on the front page for days and weeks , a democrat does the same and its placed on the back pages for a day or not at all. dont expect to ever hear the whole truth about anyone from the media. you want the truth, ask the candidate or his campaign: you will either hear truth or BS, then you can make a decision! :wink:

  13. Baghdad Aviator

    Let me understand this…. Flying at a high rate of speed, which shit going on all over the place, and a few civs get whacked by mistake and Obama has a shit fit. A whack walks into a crowd and blows his guts all over the place, and 50 plus others with him and that is OK because he obviously came from a disadvantaged family, he is misunderstood, blah, blah, blah. Obama, put on a uniform, get your skinny ass over here and you try it for a while. After your first encounter, and you have shit yourself blind, you may understand what we are really up against. It is guys like you that scare the hell out of me with your ignorance of the facts as what our once great nation is up against here. It is because of yourself, Clinton and the rest of the Kumaya Choral Singers in Congress that this war will last for decades and that to me is reprehensible as you are committing my children and grand children to this fight because you lack the back bone to stand up and fight the good fight now. War is not pretty. Deal with it.

  14. Greg M

    Wow Obama is not fit to lead anything let alone the greatest country in the world. I fully agree with you Baghdad Aviator.

  15. Ted B

    Speaking of strapping on the uniform, wasn’t there a big hue and cry not so long ago about the supporters of the war on the right not having served in the military not having any mil-cred? How many of the exalted dems running right now have served themselves? Is it still relevant to mention mil-cred when speaking about them? If they can’t be chickenhawks does that just make them chickens? It’s funny, all of my brothers and relations I have asked about this “you haven’t served so you can’t support the war” have told me that I owe them nothing, they served willingly and believe that “they also serve who wait”. My nephew goes back for his second tour in September commanding a mortar platoon, he told me it was okay, my support really helps keep him going, and his guys. So yeah, in spite of what anyone says, I can support because I have a right to that they are defending. Sorry for the tangent.

  16. terry smyth

    dr d semper fi:: re the c word
    I believe its an old english noun(or verb as now).Those people had a visual take on life, it was hard and a spade was a spade or a c**t, was what every man wanted, but could never get(whats changed)so the noun became an adjective as well.
    Coudnt give the c word to the Dems, is it an adjective or a noun, either way its way too good for them, perhaps we should use someting else to descibe them like flatuance or voiding(crap)? :evil:

  17. Boombop

    You have to know its time to shut the fuck up when you make Hillary look like she knows what she’s talking about!

  18. azbastard

    hes been brainwashed by his preacher, and hes under pressure..he just might slip and say something like all the problems are caused by whiteys

  19. danielle

    Omg what a jerk. Obama is so stupid its not even funny!

  20. bill

    I say prove it OsamaRama man with the gigantic ears. Let’s see the proof. Why don’t we use this and confront him at every turn, prove it or STFU.

  21. Dr D Semper FI

    To DC, I don’t tink he has a crank, I think Hillary owns one.

  22. Dan (The Infidel)

    ““We’ve to get the job done there and that requires us to have enough troops so that we’re not just air- raiding villages and killing civilians, which is causing enormous pressure over there.””

    I wonder how many trips “over there” Barney Obama has made?
    Air Raiding civilians? WTF? That is one of the stupidest comments that I’ve heard. Where’d he get the term “air raiding civilians” from anyways? Haven’t spent any time in the military have you civilian boy?

    The best thing that Barney can do is stay “over here” and stick to what he knows….like making an ass out of himself in public. He seems rather good at that.

  23. Jarhead68

    Obama, stay close to Yo MAMA, ’cause you sho’ don’ belong in the real worl’, son.

    I can see him in the movie version of Fantasy Island. He could play Tatoo…”Look, Boss, de plane, de plane…oh, shit, it’s an A-10. RUN!!!!” :shock:

  24. jam

    Be very afraid. This asshole was elected to the United States Senate because he has “charisma”, which means the morons that vote for him have no idea what the fuck he says but they like the way he says it.

    Ever see an old film of Hitler giving a speech?

    He will end up on the ticket with Hillary because the media will give him a pass every time he fucks up, and that will make the dem ticket tough to beat. Be very afraid.

  25. MikeP

    Presidential candidates must get to keep a load of money from their campaign chest. That has to be the only reason this dumb fucker stays in this race. He can’t open his pie hole without fucking something up for himself. I haven’t heard his wife defend him yet, but I really think she is more of man than BO will ever be. She and Elizabeth Edwards would probably be a better ticket for the dems.
    Take your money and go home, BO.

  26. Mike Moseley

    This is a perfect example of a fool democrat not understanding that our coward enemies hide behind women and children. Obama is the next Harry Reid, John Murtha, John Kerry, Dick Durbin, the next traitor that supports the enemies of this country. He is trying to look competent and can’t without protecting our enemies. I’m sure that the whole of the Muslim world will support a man named Hussein.

  27. LadyAngler

    I guess it’s pretty easy to determine who the “civilians” are when you think you know everything. Nice try, dickhead.

    Jarhead… he can’t stay close to his Momma. She’s white, and he would lose his “black man” edge.

  30. Brian

    i dont understand why everyone is up in arms about that comment. let him/them keep making these statements and stop complaining, it is only going to make winning the white house easy for the republicans. all these things can easily be used against latter on when the dems have their candidate. would you rather have to run against hillary? obama is much easier to defeat than she is. so let him make his mistakes without any complaining otherwise it is only going to make things easier for hillary if obama is run out of town. you have to think like a manipulating a**hole to win these elections.

  31. Dan (The Infidel)

    Oh yeah and Shillary is running on her record? Now there’s a fucking laugh. What record would that be? Obfuscating, annoying complaining…whiney bitching perhaps? “I’m in no ways tired…” (done in a “Da Bears” accent)….LOL.

    ______________

    ARE THESE DEMOS JUST OUT OF THEIR “FLIP FLOPPING” MINDS???

    Now this prick is saying we NEED MORE TROOPS IN IRAQ?

    (which we do…no withdrawal…we should send in 100,000 more)

    For MONTHS AND MONTHS…He has been saying we should withdraw ALL of our troops… NOW.

    ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?????

    Talk about folding like a “cheap suit”!

  35. Lamplighter

    It’s sort of strange to see a candidate so heretofore controlled and on message self destruct like Obama of late. It shows his inexperience and lack of understanding of what’s actually going on over in Iraq. Part of his sentence was “we’ve got to have enough troops,” so this is his way of double talking, in case the “surge” works, he can say “I said we need enough troops.” And that part about killing civilians always plays well to the looney left.

    BaghdadAviator,

    Obama, along with many of his supporters, don’t know how or what a JDAM is or the reason we spent so much on it’s development, to minimize colateral damage. I can say how thankful I was when any Aviator, fixed wing or rotary, showed up on station. In those days yeah, we had to keep our heads down too. What’s cool about this flub, is that many of his followers may have had that experience or know about JDAM’s, the intel it takes to get one in a doorway, straffing support etc., and they’ll be taking off his campaign buttons. Hilary has plenty of time to make the same mistake, she has in the past and will in the future.

    There’s still more we can do…

    “On Thursday, August 16th, as a direct response to MoveOn.org’s crass attempts to politicize the Iraq War, Vets for Freedom is asking all of its members to participate in our “Cost of Defeat” Call-in Campaign.

    And we are not alone in this effort. We are proud to be partnering with Families United for the Troops and Their Mission, a grassroots coalition of thousands of Gold Star and Blue Star families including some with loved ones currently in harm’s way. Both the troops-and their families-will be making calls this Thursday!

    So mark your calendar and call your members of Congress to explain the “Cost of Defeat” in Iraq. Tell them that defeat in Iraq would mean the following things:

    * A bloodbath in Iraq, costing hundreds of thousands of innocent Iraqi lives and possibly destabilize the entire Middle East region.

    * A failed state in Iraq and a safe haven for Al Qaeda to plan future attacks against America and her allies.

    * An emboldened Iran in pursuit of nuclear weapons and a victorious Al Qaeda in pursuit of new ways to kill Americans at home and around the world.”

    There’s so much more we can all do, let’s keep doing it!

    Make them hear YOU!

  42. Jewish Odysseus

    You people just don’t appreciate how brilliant Obama is! How much smarter he is than you jamokes! Come on, the man went to Haaahhhvard, just like Robert McNamara and Ted Kennedy…

    Seriously, this is one of the best and funniest threads I’ve seen here, WAY TO FIGHT BACK, PEOPLE!! Once they get done with the rough rope they use to hang that traitor Congresswoman from Kansas (the one who walked out on the Iraq briefing from Gen. Jack Keane because he was describing too many US successes), we can slip it from her wrinkled gizzard and hang Barry from the same tree.

  43. Dan (The Infidel)

    J.O:

    It’s like I keep saying, all the Dhimocrats have to do to lose the 2008 election is to keep running their mouths.

    And if anyone thinks that Shillary has a chance in 2008, try this one on for size: I heard a Dem describe her as a woman with a voice that is akin to the sound of fingernails scratching a blackboard.

    All the Republicans have to do to win, is stand up to the Dems on all issues, and nominate the right candidate. Either Thompson or Guliani will do just fine.

    Shillary and her bootlicks are going to try and frame the Republican candidates as Bush-lite. All the Republicans have to do is let her and her screwey competitors keep running their useless mouths…and show them to be the Dukakas-lite candidates that they really are.

    Of course, so long as Obamayoumomma keeps fucking up and Shillary keeps producing her metrosexual commercials, the election might just be in the bag for conservatives.

    We also need to get those files of hers, that the National Archives is currently going over.We need to revisit Vince Foster, The Rose Law Firm, Hillary-care, Travelgate, Whitewater, and oh yes, I want to see her “progressive” college thesis again.
