Obama: Troops in Afghanistan Forced to Use Taliban Weapons
2008-02-22
The Messiah said this during Thursday night's debate:
"You know, I've heard from an Army captain who was the head of a rifle platoon — supposed to have 39 men in a rifle platoon. Ended up being sent to Afghanistan with 24 because 15 of those soldiers had been sent to Iraq."

"And as a consequence, they didn't have enough ammunition, they didn't have enough Humvees. They were actually capturing Taliban weapons, because it was easier to get Taliban weapons than it was for them to get properly equipped by our current commander in chief."

This seems implausible on so many levels, but not surprising coming from this doofus.
