koan,

"Obama is pulling us out of the two stupid wars Bush got us into and is restoring the dignity of the US around the world.

Bush sullied it badly. He dragged us through the mud."

Normally I use the term "fairy tales" to describe your distortions. Now I simply want to call your distortions blatant lies. Why use sugar when the truth is appropriate.

Bush did start both wars - but the fool in chief who you and the rest of your loony friends love so dearly - has described Afghanistan as the good war we should be fighting. In fact he doubled down when elected and made a major issue in his campaign of the Afghan war not being pursued sufficiently.

koan - the liar in chief - the man you support - was all for the Afghan war. His only criticism was we were not there more. Of course that was when he was running for office and needed to appear tough (another lie from the liar in chief?).

Tell the truth for once in your life. When fairy tales are no longer appropriate - the word lie isl You sir lie when you characterize the Afghan war.

Bob

Hey koan,

Afghanistan vote: Tell me again about how it was all Bush. It is ok for you to go to confession and tell us how you have tried to spin and spin and spin and spin until lies become truth. You guys are so good at that. If you loony lefties tell a lie over and over and over and over the gullible sheep in the nation begin to believe it.

Ah - and then there was the presidential campaign where Obama played tough guy on Afghanistan. That was a necessary fabrication to show he was not a wus.

Sadly none of the major media ever call you guys on your fairy tales and creative spin. Fortunately, some of us do.

Bob
