Remember when Obama won the Nobel Prize for Peace?

[Nick Young]

Remember when Barack Obama, the same man who killed more civilians and sent more American troops to war and spent more on the military then any president in the last 30 years, was awarded the Nobel Prize for Peace before he even got in to office?

Does that award even mean anything anymore?





Any people still claim to support one of the biggest warmongers in American presidential history?

[KingBeasley08]

That was a big joke then. An even bigger one now

[fiddy]

Does that award even mean anything anymore?

No, ever since they gave it to Henry Kissinger.

[Patrick Chewing]

The award is a joke and people shouldn't pay attention to it.

i think you are delegating what bush has done to the obama administration.

Obama killed more civilians, sent more American troops in to war, spent more on the military and killed more people with drone strikes, including the targeted assassination of American citizens without trial.

Bush didn't do that. Obama did.

What? Numbers please.

What? Numbers please.

Why do you want numbers? You are only going to make excuses for Obama and blame everything on Bush, doesn't matter what numbers I show you

Bush didn't do that. Obama did.

Ah, with drone strikes. I knew the Fox News spin job was in there somewhere.

Why do you want numbers?

Because more civilians were killed, and more troops were sent overseas during the Bush administration.

Obama is responsible for the expansion of the drone program, and killing of an American citizen turned terrorist recruiter. Bush is responsible for the war in Iraq, and the civilians, and U.S personnel killed in that conflict.

What spin? It's the truth, numbnuts.

Hmm, educate yourself breh, if you believe the bolded to be true

The deployment of the support troops to Afghanistan brings the total increase approved by Obama to 34,000. The buildup has raised the number of U.S. troops deployed to the war zones of Iraq and Afghanistan above the peak during the Iraq “surge” that President George W. Bush ordered, officials said.

More Killing in Obama’s ‘War on Terror’ Than Bush’s ‘War’

http://www.justforeignpolicy.org/obamavsbush

575 US troops died in Afghanistan during the Bush presidency. By August 18, 2010, following two troop surges initiated by President Obama, that number had doubled. Today, over 1500 US troops have died in Afghanistan since President Obama took office—and yet, little in that war-torn country has changed.

These numbers should give us pause. While the Administration has publicly conceded that there is no military solution in Afghanistan, and claimed that it supports 'Afghan-led reconciliation', its policy on the ground is marked by a refusal to establish a timetable for full military withdrawal even after misleading Americans into thinking that all US troops would be out of Afghanistan by the end of 2014.

Fox News breh?

It's a pitiful spinjob, trying to paint Obama as "worse than Bush".

Lettuce discuss TOTAL civilian deaths--Bush's epic blunder in Iraq produced an estimated 100k of those. I guess those don't count since the cause of death wasn't a drone.
