    Well, it seems that they were a tad to smart for the britches by blatantly parading around out in the open.

    Remember how the righties around here were whinging about intel failures and Obama's lack of cojones?


    Well they just killed over 55 of them in a joint raid between US Drones and Yemeni special forces. And apparently killed a few big wigs.

    It might avoid embarassment if some people stopped accusing POTUS of lack of resolve.
    Oh I know he had nothing to do with it, except when its convenient for his opponents to attack him.

    Excellent work. Hope to see more stories like this.

    Excellent and for once there apparently was no nearby wedding party for Obama's drones to hit instead! Now all he has to do is pull up his socks in reference to -- oh say -- the entire rest of the Middle East and Russia and China and everywhere else he's been relentlessly screwing up in regards to foreign policy.

    Have you ever wondered why its so easy to criticize and how hard it is to suggest alternative action?

    Well, Obama's foreign policy has been a shambles but there is one thing he does well and from what I understand, takes great pleasure in and that is killing people, even Americans.

    Yeah I noticed that during the years in which I criticized Bush and company. But then again I am not getting paid to create or direct foreign policy . . . and so that's a load off my mind.

    Yes . . . and now if only we can figure out what he has against civilians and especially civilians in wedding parties. I mean that's a weird fetish . . . even for a leftwing president. At least Bill Clinton -- the blessed horn-dog -- restricted his fetishes to cigars, interns, and blue dresses.

    Might want to work a little harder on the understanding of yours. It seems to be unnaturally narrow and limited.

    Limited to the reports on Obama. Sorry I can't expand on his foreign policy successes, or lack thereof unless you think killing people with drones foreign policy.

    Actually a valid and excellent point. Dam that's depressing.

    More dead jihadis is always good. We weren't here when Obama sent the Navy after the pirates in Somalia but we approved of that and gave him credit for it.

    Obama or someone around him seems to take issue with Islam being the trump card in the multi-culti deck. We approve of that too. Secular humanist liberals are way misguided when they pull out all the stops to protect that barbarian ideology.

    Brandeis University, hang your heads in shame.

    Binnie, Qaddafi, ending the Iraq war, withdrawal from afghanistan, Iran sanctions, START ratification, countering Chinese cyberespionage, containing its expansionist desires, standing up to Netanyahu and reasserting america's traditional position on the settlements and peace talks, gaining co-operation with Yemen to combat AQIAP. All more or less positives.(i.e. not failures).
