Obama says Troops lives wasted

Rarely do things get me as frustrated as a statement like the one Senator Barak Obama made that our troops who have died in Iraq are lives wasted. You can tell he is not a veteran! And while that is not a fatal flaw in a candidate for President it is a serious question mark given his comments. And, yes I know that he now claims that his tongue slipped.

I suspect his original comment is closer the truth of where his heart lies. He is a man who prides himself on having a compassionate heart and one with which he is carefully in tune. I believe him and take him at his word on that point. That's why I think this apology is a non-starter cooked up by his handlers. The problem with Obama and all liberals is that they detest war and any of our nations strength to wage it so much that they really do believe there are not principles worth dying for. And that leads them to think the deaths of soldiers are worth nothing. I had hoped I could find a reason to vot e for this man even thoguh I know he is a tax and spend liberal. That he is also anti soldier is a source of real disappointment exceeded only by his agreeing to his handlers convincing him to say that he had a slip of the tongue.
