That's far from Obama's worst... everytime he opens his mouth, he says something stupid... He just adressed the military in Afganistan and satrted out by saying "Your friends are going to die"... That is NO WAY to rally the troops... One of the first things he ever said as President was "From this recession, we will se opportunity"... what kind of stupidness is that "from the losses of your brothers, you will be able to gain wealth"? Speaking the truth is important, but when you are a Leader, obvious truth never needs to be said... Of course their friends are going to die, of course one person's loss can be another person's gain, but to throw this stuff in the face of the people that it's going to happen to is just plain nuts!!!
