Fact Check: Romney vs. Obama

Mitt Romney recently attacked Barack Obama over his comments regarding the war in Afghanistan and the need for more troops on the ground, so as to reduce the reliance on air raids that have often resulted in Afghan civilian casualties. Romney called Obama's comments "outrageous" and "a suggestion that somehow our troops are not noble and dignified." But even a quick glance at the realities of the situation in Afghanistan shows that Romney has remarkably little understanding of the facts.

  • You're an idiot.

    By saying "We've got to get the job done there and that requires us to have enough troops so that we're not just air-raiding villages and killing civilians...", It sounds like Obama is insinuating that our troops are "just air-raiding vilages and killing civilians". It was a bad mis-statment, that's what Romney said, he gave Obama the benefit of the doubt. I'm not so sure he wasn't criticizing our troops. Liberals are known for that, but it was certainly poorly worded at least.
