Bah, why take 5000 when he could just take Jack Bauer?

Kharn

Posted: 2/28/2006 2:03:42 PM EDT

If he's taking 5000 to democratic, Hindu India, what will it take if he goes to Pakistan.

Jack Bauer.

I'd like to know how much in personal that is costing us.

Actually he's bringing 10 body guards and 4990 liberals that he's going to lose on the way back.

It was on Yahoo news earlier as well. 5K sounds like it's a reasonable number to me considering what a shithole India is!

Posted: 2/28/2006 2:17:44 PM EDT

[#18]

What regiment is he taking? 504 ,505, or 325?

Posted: 2/28/2006 2:19:28 PM EDT

I'd like to be on that detail.

Posted: 2/28/2006 2:20:55 PM EDT

That's probably more military than some countries.

Betcha he is not taking 5000, but there will be 5000 security types total, including Pakistani security forces.

5000? Sounds like a coup attempt.

I know, wishful thinking.

I'm concerned about our President.

nope that's the point of the article. South Asia local security forces have tried so many assassination attempts and are so compromised that we need one or two guys to watch EACH of their guys.

Doubtful on the 5K, but I haven't reviewed the RFFs for a week or so. That's roughly a brigade sized force. Open sources report about 150 security personnel there now. Are you sure it wasn't 500?

He's got to take that many. Chuck Norris is busy this week.

Whats a POTUS worth to you?

He has to travel, he has to go places, and he needs to be secure. If he has to mobilize a damn Division, or two even, so be it.

We arent talking about someone who stays in the White House scared.....dont forget.....

I dont think its a secret. Half of them are DuH trolls, the others are anarchists in disguise.

That leaves you and me.

And my Mom. She voted for GW. "I believe he walks with the Father".
