Petraeus marks July 4 with troops in Afghanistan

Red White and Blue.
Red from sun burn. White because I AM Caucasian and Blue because every thing I did this weekend was taxed. Happy 4th of U--lie.

let this be the last 4th spent in Afghanistan or Iraq by American troops.

Get out of Afghanistan! Enough with the "keep us safe" talk. We all know that is not why we are there. Terrorists are in every country in the world. No more blood for oil.

Dems, Obama has the U.S. involved in seven conflicts. Sending drones to kill our enemies count; Iraq, Afganistan, Pakistan, Syria, Yemen, Somalia, Lybia. You used to be the party that made the term, '-make love, not war,' popular. Today, thousands die and you don't complain. This clearly demonstrates that your attitude is, PARTY FIRST, forget reason.

Something tell me that many of you posting do not know what its like to be away from your loved ones while deployed for your country.

Well! Heavy 4th of July Image going on at nine pm next to me "Dhurum-Dharam, Hurush-Harash, Putush-patash, potash- Photos, Dhum-dham of a fireworks. The demographic area I am living, this area for an Italian, Irish, Japanese, and Germany’s patriotisms.

The enemy will certainly respect us when they see how orderly we retreat.

we have 2 chances of winning the war in afghanistan - dog's chance and no chance. we will cut and run like we did in vietnam.

Our troops should be sent back home immediately and completely. The people we are fighting for do not appreciate us. They hate us and we should allow them to maintain and govern their own Countries. Billions of tax payers dollars are spent to help those that want us dead. With Osama bin laden gone , alqeda and taliban weakened, we should come home and protect our Country within our boarders. These wars(Afghanistan & Iraq) are bankrupting us. Our econmy has become very fragile because of these wars which they don't appreciate our sacrifice. They hate us and call us infidels, devils and invaders, etc. We should come back home and wait until they ask for our help or weapons and they pay for it. Ahmed Karzai is talking nonsence and thinks that it is his right to receive help and rebuild his country and maintain him in power like a king with his corrupttion and dishonesty; No we are not fools. The war is messing up our economy and billions of tax payers money are wasted. We are suffering and shading blood to those that want us dead at an instant anytime anyday in the name of religion or hatred. Please bring our troops back now ! The republicans are talking about deficit without the wars that are milking us daily. They should talk about the wars first before anything and urge the president to bring back our troops now !! There will be no deficit if these battles are over and our troops back. Those billions are enough to rebuild, reshape, research and put Americans back to work.We are building and they are destroying with bombs daily.Let our troops be back period !! Happy 4th of July and Long lives to Americans.

Living Poverty in America with my Mom = in a Shack converted, what is the Difference of a HOME to Garage? Simple' the HOME is for decent life. While Garage is for Car closet and Tools' but God Bless better than Sleeping in the Corner! No Heat No Cooling. but thank God we got a Fan only 1 T.V. works, all is junks, Our Place is Cool looks like a Junkyard a Lot of Stuff broken Appliances, due to No Budget, No way to Fix it. the Owner is a junk lover Guy Not a Hater but at Least not a Heartless, and Friendly let's Me Use His Old PC Now that i'm typing. but i'm Proud why? because We are in a Country which is Most Hated by the Haters like YOU, but they Can't Kick themselves Outta Here and Still Here and Loving it. My family relatives are Proud not of a Hardship but 3 of my Cousins serves the USarmy' 1 is probably discharged, but 2 are still on Duty now. we are proud of them. and Not that All we are Proud of Because we start here,established, now in Hardship, but still their life and Feeling Stays Here' and who knows maybe Tommorow or next year goodluck might comes right'' I wish God reward the Patience of the People who will stay trust in Him.

What weirdness this life truly is its funny though how history ALWAYS repeats itself through violence.

LOL! We are simply living in the shadow of what used to be the greatest nation on the planet.

Visible puffs and flashes down the Twin Towers equal proof of implosion......plus, NO building of that magnitude falls that fast from a hit at the tip. Buildings fell that weren't even hit. No airplane parts at the Pentagon, and the hole was too small for jet liner hit. No airplane parts, or body parts, in the Pennsylvania crash.....plus, gouge in earth is far too small. So. 9-11? A scam of huge proportions and a following invasion of Iraq and Afganistan because of it. Big percentage of the terroists(?) were Saudi. Lots of unanswered questions for me to believe this is anything but a scam.

"Happy Birthday America and 4th of July" I would like to say Jefferson is father of the 4th of July as an author of the Declaration of Independence; the America is born by him on his written documents. Why not for this day celebrate for him on his name?

I am so angry about a random non related Democrat/ and or Republican. I think my opinon is right and all others are wrong. I also am racist at that other race and just overall very angry. Arggh. Ohh Happy 4th of July

"Thank you Mr. Petreaus for all the innocent people you accidentally murdered, and the billions of war dollars stolen from citizens." - R B

Every general in history could be praised similarly. Sorry if you expected a bloodless war at a discount price.

And where is Obama ??? Hard at work on the deficet or unemployment?? No

Obama was on yet another vacation.

Obama cares for nothing other than himself.

obummer's spending the day hiding under his girls skirts!!!!
