    Which of his supporters is saying that it's ok that we killed a civilians in the attack?

    Where did Obama claim that no civilians would be harmed? Where is the hypocrisy you are talking about?

    What happened is awful and horrible policy whether it was done by Bush or Obama, but I'm curious why you think it was hypocrisy.

    He failed to respond to the question about policy that allowed for the killing of civilians half the time.

    It is clear that he cares more about trying to show Obama and his supporters to be at fault or wrong, than the actual issue of civilian casualties and American foreign policy.

    It's odd that in another post he accused Dems of putting party before country. Just look at what the focus of his posts are.

    Please elaborate precisely where the hypocrisy lies. You haven't highlighted anything even resembling it yet.

    Identify an exact quote, brah. Nobody watches your videos. If you want to take a position, please take the actual position.

    I know exactly what you're going to say - I need you to say it so that when you open up your LOCKER OF FAIL I can slam the door back into your face, after giving you the EPIC ATOMIC WEDGIE OF SUCK, and hang you from the coathook.

    So please....for the sake of the children, precisely indicate the nature of the hypocrisy.

    Highlight exactly why this incident renders Obama's plan/words on Afghanistan to be hypocritical.

    The video is really short. It is while President Obama was still compaining. He states in the video that air-raiding is wrong and needs to end. Those aren't his exact words, but it is esentially what he said. I can't go back and listen to it it right now to give you exact words. I think it is hypocritical.

    Edit: I forgot to include that is is just a line from Obama. There is no way of knowing the exact context from the video.

    I love how the Republicans conveniently forget that Obama campaigned on the promise of ramping up the Afghanistan campaign and then try to goad Liberals by saying "LOOK HE'S STILL IN AFGHANISTAN, HOPE AND CHANGE?!?"

    You'd be OK with the Afghani army air bombing your cities and killing your children, so I don't see why this is a big deal. Those kids would obviously just grow up to be terrorists anyway.
