Consider this just an ideas open thread.
Keep it clean, children could be reading.
I’ll start: There is a deep sadness at the loss of members of SEAL Team 6. Every soldier is valuable and mourned, but this tragedy seems to be special.

I would like to bring the attention of your readers to the plight of Asia Bibi, a Pakistani mother of five, who has been imprisoned and sentenced to death for “blasphemy” of the Prophet Muhammad.
Her story can be found here:

There is a lot of howling in the secular media about “Islamophobia” in the USA. If these journalists actually looked beyond their ivory-tower newsrooms, they would find the world a far different place than they imagine.
Heroes all that died. SEAL Team 6 extraordinaire..
Not a conspiracy theorist, but this smells of leaked info. Find it difficult to believe this was mere chance..
Would never have happened on Bush’s watch. Never.
Valerie Jarret, however, is another entity altogether.

OMG
Obama’s Chest Thumper Killing Fields
The murder of Sheik bin Laden and other Muslim terrorists by Barack Hussein Obama has now ushered in an evening of the score as Obama’s boasting, wild eyes, smirking and chest thumping in “He killed bin Laden personally”, has wiped out the lives of American and Afgahnistan Special Operations Forces in over 30 dead.
This blog will exclusively take this apart and inform you what no one else will as this was Barack Obama and Leon Panetta trying to put trophies on the wall, Obama for his political 2012 numbers and Panetta trying to prove he is capable at Defense playing with the big boys.
First the Taliban quote in the puzzle:
Taliban spokesman Zabiullah Mujahid said in a statement that Taliban fighters downed the helicopter during a “heavy raid” in Sayd Abad. He said NATO attacked a house in Sayd Abad where insurgent fighters were gathering Friday night. During the battle, the fighters shot down the helicopter, killing 31 Americans and seven Afghans, he said, adding that eight insurgents were killed in the fight.
Next why the “heavy raid”:
The Taliban claimed they downed the helicopter with rocket fire while it was taking part in a raid on a house where insurgents were gathered in the province of Wardak late Friday.
This blog gave Bush43 and Cheney hell for wasting special forces lives in these damned box canyon political show raids, and Obama is guilty of an even greater atrocity here in murdering Americans and Afghani’s BECAUSE THIS WAS NOT ABOUT KILLING THE ENEMY, this was about capturing someone at this gathering.
I will state this again so you get this……………THIS WAS AN OBAMA AND PANETTA SHOW STUNT AGAIN just like Obama by passing the CIA Directorate and using DOD to send in the Obama SEALS to murder Sheik bin Laden all for political gain.
SOMEONE WAS IN THAT HOUSE and Obama and Panetta wanted absolute proof of another one of these “buried at sea events”, so Obama could chest thump before America about his murdering someone again.
How’s that damned cheering now treating the American dead there Mark Levin? All of you pathetic blood lust idiots who cheered bin Laden being murdered INSTEAD OF FOCUSING ON THE OBAMA CRIME, so it would put a check on this, have now just gotten 31 Americans murdered in Afghanistan and our finest Afghani allied troops, for another Obama political event.
Why do you think this blog was all over this? THIS IS THE REASON as it changes the US military and it puts the US military into checks and balances of it being murdered for political gain.
There are many excuses in this in putting a twin rotor Chinook into that situation, but I will point out that it appears that Obama’s Taliban were waiting for that CH-47, and that means someone tipped them off. You know the same someones in the CIA who keep terrorists around Karzai’s brother to assassinate him.
Not making any accusations in the payback game, but there is more to this than what is being reported………and the most damning of this is Obama sent in special ops again for a mass murder political event, and Obama got Americans murdered instead.
THIS EVENT could have been neutralized by a high altitude thermobaric strike. Such a bomb would have sucked the oxygen out of the canyon, and left the suffocated terrorists viable to take DNA from. THAT IS THE CORRECT OPERATION and you now see the incorrect operation Obama and Panetta engaged in, in this Murder Inc. which Obama is running for his 2012 political campaign.
This blog did not believe that there were any high value targets left to raise Obama’s poll numbers, but with the downgrade of the US economy, Obama apparently in desperation engaged in another murder operation to wag the dog like Jimmy Carter tried in Iran that got American’s murdered and pissed on by Ayatollahs.
This would mean that Mullah Omar of the Taliban was at this house at least or Dr. Zawahiri of the Marxist al Qaeda wing. None of which Americans care about enough for political reasons, so this all could have been a thermobaric sweep with a mop up of dead bodies in the dawn, with no Americans or Afghani’s murdered.
I will note in this, that the Taliban and al Qaeda are learning. They have set their fields of fire, they chose their meeting place well to lure in helos to be downed and they took the political event Obama gave and made it their victory.
John McCain and the GOP are a disgrace as I have pointed out in not protecting the US military from Obama. The Democrats are accomplices to Obama’s murdering machine in this gay military now.
It is past 3 years time now for the military to arrest this fraud B. Hussein Obama for the mass murdering, terrorist he is, from Predator strikes to thee absolute heinous illegal operations in Libya.
This mass murder of Americans should never have happened, and only happened because Congress has not been protecting Soldiers from this Obama chest thumping, trophy on the wall, Murder Incorporated, of meat grinder regime.
31 Americans lives wasted for a goddamned political event.
Gen. Patton is not here to say it, so by God I will.

May God’s peace be with the families and loved ones of those lost today.
Not making any humor over the deaths,
but the games are afoot,
me thinks I smell z dirt of obomnation.
If not why the press on a crash with so many details so soon.
Ah the Afgan carpet web…imbed inbred of fallow tang.
Sourced justice or a lucky strike with burning copper wedgie
by nearsighted camel pulitizer. Yeah right.
Addition is fine, it’s the integration and derivatives give subtraction a cover story.
NEW YORK/SHANGHAI (Reuters) — China bluntly criticized the United States on Saturday one day after the superpower’s credit rating was downgraded, saying the “good old days” of borrowing were over.
Standard & Poor’s cut the U.S. long-term credit rating from top-tier AAA by a notch to AA-plus on Friday over concerns about the nation’s budget deficits and climbing debt burden.
China — the United States’ biggest creditor — said Washington only had itself to blame for its plight and called for a new stable global reserve currency.
“The U.S. government has to come to terms with the painful fact that the good old days when it could just borrow its way out of messes of its own making are finally gone,” China’s official Xinhua news agency said in a commentary.
God bless those young men. Their families are in my prayers.
Our dear brave boys go down and that pos in the WH is going campaigning… I can’t stand it.
Tragedy, Loose lips kill SEALS!

My condolences to all the families of the soldiers that were killed in the helicopter crash.
From day one, I thought it was incredibly unwise to reveal any details of the Bin laden raid. We should have simply said that Osama Bin laden was killed and his body taken away during a covert operation – PERIOD.
Only rookies would reveal details of the raid because anyone with the slightest bit of foresight would have realized that by revealing all of those details we only accomplished two things:
1) We alerted any other terrorists we are seeking to EXACTLY how we do things. How many Islamic terrorists we were seeking do you think immediately moved into dense urban settings after they learned how we got Bin Laden?
2) We only helped a culture that lives on revenge and retribution to focus their efforts on the Seals. And we are now reaping the rewards of that stupidity.
Per the charts, everything shows something radically changed in expenditures and revenues since 2006. What could that have been? Why the democraps took over Congress in 2007. Funny how the decline happened as soon as democraps took over? Wonder why that is? Any ideas democraps?
If we are to survive the looming catastrophe, we need to face the truth
“The idea that a capitalist economy can support a socialist welfare state is collapsing before our eyes”

[…] Legal Insurrection points out that it’s the spending, stupid […]
Within hours of the Bid Laden operation, numerous officials in the Obama administration had compromised unbelievable amounts of OPSEC info about the raid. Within hours the administration had exposed the SEALS, their families and others associated to incredible risks. We should never have known the names of the units involved, how they got there, what they found, what they took, what they learned from what they took and much, much more. I knew then this idiotic release of classified information would cost lives. I just didn’t think it would be this bad, this soon.
This administration cares nothing about anyone other than Obama. Never doubt that for a second.
The pile of bodies “thrown under the bus” will continue to mount…

It’s interesting and instructive to note that the lines for Receipts (State and Local) and Expenditures (State and Local) match up. Most states have constitutional requirements for a balanced budget.
My heart breaks for the loss of our hero SEALs, and the pain of their families.
Let’s get out of Afghanistan and Iraq. The Zero has made it impossible for our military to do its job.
