President Obama and the First Lady have made a number of media-savvy attempts at cleaning up the anti-military image the Democrats have earned over the years- visits to wounded soldiers, etc.
Here’s the reality. Absolutely incomprehensible, especially given that he is the Commander–in-Chief of our armed forces. How do you think news like this goes over among the troops? How’s your morale today, suckers?

“First, of the 4,322 Americans killed in combat in Iraq since 2003, 10 percent of them (i.e., more than 400) have been murdered by a single type of weapon alone, a weapon that is supplied by Iran for the singular purpose of murdering Americans. As Steve Schippert explains at NRO’s military blog, the Tank, the weapon is “the EFP (Explosively Formed Penetrator), designed by Iran’s IRGC specifically to penetrate the armor of the M1 Abrams main battle tank and, consequently, everything else deployed in the field.”
“Understand: This does not mean Iran has killed only 400 Americans in Iraq. The number killed and wounded at the mullahs’ direction is far higher than that — likely multiples of that — when factoring in the IRGC’s other tactics, such as the mustering of Hezbollah-style Shiite terror cells.”
