bonnie Posted October 11, 2012 Author Posted October 11, 2012 The most disappoint thing about Obama has been his foreign policy. He's the same as Bush. Romney will be the same as Obama. More people will die for oil. Same old story but folks think their man will be different. So Afghanistan is a oil producing country? What most soldiers seem to have against Obama is the admin tying their hands in battle,dragging Bin-Laden thru the verbal streets time and time again,naming Seal 6 which they don't believe should ever been acknowledged,situations like the Libya bombing.The increase in violence since the timeline for leaving was broadcast. Bin-Laden/Al-Quada should have been the target from the beginning and then get out. Whether we should be there or not I will listen to those friends and family that have been there for a couple of tours Quote Everything you do is based on the choices you make.
