Incredibly cynical and depressing. And quite possibly correct.
“The public opinion is pretty damn clear that Americans wanted out of the ongoing war and don’t want to get back in. It’s true today and it’s going to be true in six months,” said one Biden ally. “It isn’t about not caring or being empathetic about what’s going on over there, but worrying about what’s happening in America.”…
White House officials believe Americans’ horror over graphic images of the chaos in Kabul and pleas from Afghans who fear they will be killed

Had the scenes of slaughter occurred BEFORE biteme withdrew the troops - maybe
Problem is: the horrific scenes are AFTER biteme withdrew. Biteme owns it......

People aren't stupid. It was Biden's withdrawal decision that caused the slaughter.

So - - here's the question which no one has yet asked Josef Stolen - - - -
"Mr. Stolen - - if you don't know how many Americans are behind the taliban lines - - how will you know when they've all been taken out?"
Yeah - - I'd love to see that one asked - - just to see the flummoxed faces of all of those fake "experts."

Once again they keep whining about the straw man argument...withdrawal. Almost nobody is questioning the withdrawal, it's the cowardly and callous way it is being done. And NOBODY is going to ever forget that

If they believe we will forget about thousands of Americans abandoned by this so-called administration, they are as deranged as Xiden.

How can they be this disconnected to human tragedy? Women being killed and beaten because they are not dressed according to sharia law. Men falling from airplanes in the sky. Men dragged from their homes and murdered because they worked with the Americans. Advanced weapons now in the hands of these evil feral monsters. 12 year old girls being taken to become sex slaves. Tens of thousands of people trapped in their homes unable to evacuate to the airport. And joe thinks all is well and good and we are not truly concerned and will just let this slide? OMG, how can the president (?) not know what is happening on the ground? He is right that we were not against leaving but we certainly are against the absolute slaughter and chaos that this administration has unleashed. It is how they are leaving. Everything that flowed from biden's mouth was garbage and those who also spoke lies, it was all garbage. Americans are worn out by that joe has heaped on us. He is so much worse that I thought he would be. Dear, Lord. We need some divine intervention.

The leftist and socialist Democrat operatives who are advising Biden at the White House these days are from a different world then the veterans and current US military members who have served in Iraq and Afghanistan. Clearly Biden and his operatives want to get out of Afghanistan as soon as possible while ignoring what will happen in Afghanistan after all US Forces are pulled out. Biden and those operatives could care less what happens to the Afghans who were working for and assisting the US military. The veterans and the current US military members who served in Afghanistan staunchly support bringing the Afghans who assisted them, along with their families to the USA. But right now with Biden just wanting to get out of Afghanistan the Taliban have the upper hand. Biden even hinted today that him aiding the Taliban in the future depends on their conduct, in Biden’s old line liberal Democrat World him aiding the Taliban means giving them millions or billions of dollars that in this situation would be a huge bribe. All the talk is about Americans and friendly getting to the Kabul Airport and getting flights out of Afghanistan. That’s not going to happen as most of those trapped Americans and Afghans are in cities and towns hundreds of miles from Kabul. Chances are the Taliban game plan is to allow all US citizens and other foreign nationals who show up at the Kabul Airport to get out of Afghanistan before August 31 after harassing them, as the Taliban never wanted those foreigners to be in Afghanistan in the first place. As far as Afghans are concerned it’s almost certain that the Taliban is not going to allow the USA to take friendly Afghans out of Afghanistan as the Taliban intends to murder those Afghans. What happens after August 31 in Afghanistan is a crapshoot.

This blood isn't just on Whacko-Team JStolen's hands; it's also on Turtle-Boy and every other GOPe, anti-Trump, establishment twit that worked to help the demo-commies steal an election. Elections have consequences. This is one of them. Hopefully another consequence would be seeing everyone of those traitors involved in the election steal being publicly hanged. And left to rot as a warning to other demo-commie bureaucrats.

This is like Benghazi except this is happening in slow motion and in the light of day. Not even Susan Rice will trot out and claim that the dead on the streets of Kabul, so thick in places as to impede traffic in places, are the victims of spontaneous violence, you know, like Chicago.

I believe most people support the exit. It is the execution of the exit that is all f'ed up. For that, it is all on Joe Biden. C'mon man. Read the room.

This is to be expected. Biden nd the Dems have their own execution squad know as the Capital Police. With the FBI, CIA IRS and US Supreme Joke of the United States in their hip pockets, the more gore the better. What American will object knowing the FBI can raid you, the Capital Police can execute you, the IRS can financially ruin you, the CIA is constantly monitoring everything you do and th Supreme Joke will rubber stamp anything the Democrats do.

Had the images been of Afghan military and the tollybon slugging it out, they would probably be correct. But images of women and children being brutalized.....not so much. If anything, those images would hack off any red blooded American.

So, this depraved, perverted, ghoulish, disgusting senile old bastid thinks that the slaughter of people will boost his image as a man in charge doing the right thing?
May the Lord take him early.

Keep on telling yourself that if it makes you feel better. When videos of Americans being beheaded are on the Internet, nobody is going to feel better. Biden will blame it on Trump and return to Delaware.

The headline seems to say that the DemocRATS would consider and implement a politcal plan to get what they want - a politcal plan that includes using pictures of dead Americans.
Perhaps other Americans like you and I can be used for their purposes too.

As Rush would say, #29 slid sideways to.the truth. I got to thinking why we were importing Mexicans and Afghanis flat broke into the U.S. and forcing Americans into non-inocculation camps while destroying small businesses and siezing assets of the middle class.
They are achieving their age-old dream of elites being served by the plantation slaves.
