6 more US soldiers were killed in Afghanistan on Sunday. Does President Obama give a damn? Not likely. Politicking is his game, in a perpetual state of campaigning to domestically transform America, not sympathetic to those petty squabbles in far away lands...even if our troops are still there. Who cares about them!
Over the Bush years from October 2001, when the Afghan War started, and December 2008, when Bush's rule was pretty much over, American troop deaths had reached a total of 630. An average of 7.2 deaths a month over an 87 month span. That was Bush.
Obama? Try this calculation...
Total American troop deaths: 1408
Total months Obama has been in office: 42
Troop deaths per month under Obama: ???
That's 33.5 dead Americans under Obama each month for those of you who are mathematically challenged. In fact, if you look at the numbers, troop deaths in Afghanistan spiked at an unprecedented rate immediately after Obama took office, and have not come down since.
That red line marks the beginning of the Obama Afghanistan War Legacy. The graph speaks for itself.
