1) It's about f*cking time
2) Let's bring all of them home.

During that election, he ran as the anti-war candidate

o_O

Meanwhile... Republicans are trying to have our soldiers' flights home diverted to Iran.

Welcome home, Troops. Have a beer, eat a pound of bacon and go out and get laid.

It is a good thing that our soldiers are returning home.

The bad news is that they have been subjected to war at all, leaving us with a vast number of twenty-somethings who are mentally scarred for life, if not physically scarred.

Also, Republicans have decided that "entitlement" programs like the VA should be slashed, so they won't get the medical or occupational help they need.

By the way, could someone tell the BBC they are not required to start a new paragraph for every farking sentence?

I mean, seriously.

Slashing jobs and raising unemployment... great job O'Bingowashisnameo.

Relatively Obscure: During that election, he ran as the anti-war candidate

Oh for God's sake.

He did not. In fact, if you morons had read a GOTTDAMNED thing he wrote, you'd see that he had ALWAYS planned on ramping up fighting in Afghanistan, and that he ALWAYS thought the war in Iraq was an expensive and bloody mistake.

Pretty much.

And let's bring as many home as possible. 'bout damned time.

Welcome home, have some sex, pack your bags cause yourass is going to Afghanistan

I'm glad they're back. I hope the safety net is big enough for all their needs.

Still missing my friends in Afghanistan. :(

EnviroDude: Welcome home, have some sex, pack your bags cause yourass is going to Afghanistan

So what you're saying is we're also not drawing down there? You might want to tell some returning Afghan troops that.

And ruin another of his/hers fantasies? You old meanie.

And this is going to be spun....

Welcome Back!

Good luck finding a job.

Now it looks like I said that :(

Welcome to Fark.

And Welcome Back Troops. Great Job, We're Proud Of You!


Obama is one down one to go.

Darth_Lukecash: Welcome to Fark.

Y'know, you SAY that, but do you MEAN it? *sniffle*

Oznog: Well that's kinda the thing. Many are there because it's their job, and they're being paid, probably better than they'd get back home.

As such, the war "ending" may not be a welcome change.

Oh for Chrissakes. Spinning the fact that we're getting out of Iraq? Really?

"Vietnam was *WAY* more retarded."

That ^

4 words for them: Have fun in Afghanistan.
