So Joe, Tell Us Again How Great Things Are Going In Afghanistan - I Must Have Missed Something?

Apparently, I am just stupid and don't know a thing about foreign affairs. Apparently, the Obama Administrations plans and strategies cannot be questioned, not by you or I, not by the media, or even someone running for office. The message they gave us was "the terrorists are on the run and we are bringing the troops home with a job well done," and that was the foundation of their arguments for their policies in Afghanistan the Obama Administration and the Obama/Biden 2012 campaign. Well, okay fine, but something is amiss because things are not fine in Oz after all it seems.

On Sunday Morning December 2, 2012 there was a news flash which spread across the news wires. The USA Today stated; "Suicide bombers assaulted Jalalabad Airfield, a joint U.S.-Afghan air base in eastern Afghanistan, detonating explosives at the gate and sparking a gunfight that lasted at least two hours."

Now then, do you remember when Vice President Joe Biden and Vice Presidential Candidate Paul Ryan debated on TV and Mr. Biden told Mr. Ryan that he didn't know what he was talking about when it came to training the Afghan forces and that things were not going well in the East of the Country? Joe Biden laughed at Paul Ryan trying to make him look like a fool on TV, and stated that the Obama Administration had absolutely everything under control, not only are things not in control there now, but Mr. Biden couldn't control his laughter or his misstatements during that debate back then.

The mass media kept telling the American People that Joe Biden won the debate? But as time goes on we see that Joe didn't have his facts straight or was just continually telling falsehoods. That is not winning a debate, in my opinion that would be called; lying. But of course, the gentleman and scholar Paul Ryan isn't allowed to say that, politicians get pummeled for using the "L" word, well Republican Candidates I guess, it's okay if the left-leaners scream up and down calling everyone the "L" word and if you disagree with them still, they call you the "R" word.

It's too bad that the American People didn't get a real debate on international affairs, after all, it is the US Taxpayer still paying for what's going on around the world, you know things like the contributions to the IMF to bailout Greece, the foreign aid to Egypt, the costs of the United Nations, the Libyan fiasco, and the war in Afghanistan. If the Obama Administration told falsehoods to get reelected and figured they had to or they would have been defeated then in that case they are not in office legitimately.

Thus, might I be so bold as to suggest that the Obama Administration is unfit to lead, especially when it comes to our Nation's foreign policy? Well, I'd like some straight answers about Afghanistan, about the Libya Benghazi attack, and while we are at it, I have about 20-more questions I'd like answered, sooner than later. I will continue to write more articles these issues. Please consider all this and think on it.
