Patriot Net Daily – by John PND
Senior Airman Brian Kolfage is a United States hero. He is a triple-amputee veteran of the War in Iraq who has surpassed all odds and made the most incredible recovery of any veteran to ever survive his injuries. He is a patriot – the kind of man you want your son to grow up to be. This is his letter to Obama.
My Open Letter to Obama.
I nearly died in a war that you and most of your colleagues supported overwhelmingly, including the two presidents who came before you. Many citizens may not agree with waging war in Iraq to free the oppressed Iraqi citizens, but it’s something that warriors like myself have zero control over. I joined to serve my country and to better my life. I’ve seen things that you could never imagine, and they have made me the person I am today.
Mr. Obama, even though we share extreme opposite views, we have one thing in common, we both attended school in Hawaii. However, that’s where the similarities end. You see, as you attended your exclusive, private school, I would ride my bike to Kaimuki High school in one of the roughest areas in Hawaii every morning and would ride past Punahou, the exclusive private school you attended. I would notice the Bentleys, Maserati’s, and fancy foreign cars that all the kids were dropped off in; wow it must have been extremely rough in Hawaii living that life, right? I could only imagine what it was like to have that kind of money. Fortunately for you, not many people are aware of the school and the upper class citizens who attended it. The tuition to attend your exclusive, private school was more than it cost me to obtain a Bachelor’s degree in Architecture from the University of Arizona. You talk a big game when it comes to financial inequality, yet I’m quite sure you have no idea what it’s truly like to have sacrifice. You were one of the elitist children in Hawaii.
After High School, we each chose very different paths. You were able to attend Ivy League schools, and I sought out a military career to in hopes of earning a degree. What we have in life as children usually sets the tone for what we will face later in life that will make us successful. I worked to get where I am today, and YOU WERE HANDED IT….Mr. Inequality.
I volunteered to go to Iraq on both of my deployments, and the second time I begged to go even after I wasn’t selected, which ultimately got me placed on the team where I would lose both legs and my dominant arm. I’ve never asked myself was losing 3 limbs in a war worth it, even though many Americans were against it.
I am frequently reminded of the many young Iraqi children who would beg me for water, food, and toys while I was stationed in Iraq. Children, who in all aspects made the poorest of poor American children look rich. You have no idea what it really means to be poor. It’s laughable that you, who would have no idea what it means to be poor would so frequently play the inequality card.
While I was in Iraq, our mission was to liberate the Iraqi citizens from a tyrant and that’s what we did. Never forget, it was your people who sent us there, like the Clintons, John Kerry, Nancy Pelosi & Carl Levin. However, since the day you busted onto the scene you’ve been talking about ending the war and pulling the troops out, not understanding the blood sweat and tears that so many Americans and Iraqi’sinvested. And with complete disregard for every life sacrificed, every limb lost, and every broken family, you bailed on our mission to pursue an agenda that was completely centered on your re-election in 2012. If you didn’t bail on Iraq you were worried that you may not get re-elected and that’s a fact. Just before elections on Oct 11, 2012 you said “Al Qaeda is on the run and Osama bin Laden is dead.” Look at Iraq now, they are in shambles and the Al Qaeda flag is flying freely. Clearly, you’re unfit for duty as a Commander in Chief. You put your own agenda ahead of America’s agenda, and now you have single handedly ruined and destroyed nearly everything we gained in Iraq. It clearly means nothing to you, because the only thing that you’ve personally invested in that country was a promise to bail on them. However, people like me gave limbs, friends have died, and we’ve watched families destroyed by war’s aftermath.
I’m not placing blame on you for the war, I’m placing blame on you for destroying what we’ve worked so hard to build. You’re not a leader, you’re a community organizer. A leader would have stood up regardless of the situation and put America’s agenda first and that is ensuring a secure Iraq even after 10 years of war. But, you placed Barack first, just as Robert Gates confirmed in his new book. I can’thelp but think of those poor kids who I gave water and toys to 11 years ago. They’re probably 15 or 16 years old now, and I can only imagine what it’s like for them to have their nation being torn apart yet again; all because of your poor leadership qualities. Regardless of why we went to Iraq, its water under the bridge. We went there, we waged war, and we not only owed it to our KIA’s but we owed it to the citizens of Iraq. We invaded their country and turned it upside down, and you bailed on them. You bailed on our soldiers and you’ve wasted every death and every limb, it’s all for nothing. And to make matters worse you blame others for your failures.
You’re just another elitist rich thug who’s pretended to live the rough life growing up in the inner-city. You’re only worried about your own agenda and furthering your party instead of taking care of Americans. Your inability to be a leader at some of the most critical points has caused both of our wars to fail. You’ve been a joke to most of our veteran community and we have no faith in your ability to lead.

Mr. Kolfage`s letter will never get to obama – it will be put in special files like the garbage can in other words – after some goverment ass kisser reads it and puts Mr. Kolfage on the govt.s special hit list – or something comparable – I bet.
Digs, Obama has seen it and already has his “Think Tanks” and media whores ready to spew out projectile verbal diarrhea to counter this Veteran’s negative PR against him. “Who dares question my wisdom and authority? Hey Sparky, ready a drone, he’s on my “Hit List.”
It was never intended to get to Obama. It’s just one of the many prescriptions desperately needed to “get the masses to Obama”, to overcome his infectious dis-ease.
The letter represents a common held belief in much of America written with obvious forethought & compassion.
Sadly, another vet’ who still believes there is a ‘war on terror’, or that we went to Iraq to “spread democracy”, failing to step back a little further and SEE that Saddam was put into place by us, and often entertained American diplomats and dignitaries – Rumsfeld, for one.
Like vets who wonder why we didn’t “win” in Vietnam. THE GOAL IS NOT TO WIN. THE GOAL IS WAR PROFITS.
And THIS is what frightens me about soldiers firing on Americans; Most are clueless as to any history, and WILL simply ‘serve their country’ by firing on “American terrorists” – because they were TOLD they were ‘terrorists’, and that they were “serving their country”….
The COMPLETE ACCEPTANCE of American politicians as ‘leaders’ or who’s orders one follows, without question, is well summed up in Larken Rose’s The Complete and Undeniable Truth
.
“Like vets who wonder why we didn’t “win” in Vietnam. THE GOAL IS NOT TO WIN. THE GOAL IS WAR PROFITS.”
Almost, but not quite, Mesphisto. The following is an excerpt from the movie “The International”:
Umberto Calvini: “No, this is not about making profit from weapons sales. It’s about control.”
Naomi: “Control the flow of weapons, control the conflict.”
Umberto: ” No. No, no. The IBBC is a bank. Their object isn’t to control the conflict, it’s to control the debt that the conflict produces. You see, the real value of a conflict, the true value, is in the debt that it creates.
You find this upsetting, yes? But this is the very essence of the banking industry. To make us all, whether we be nations, or individuals, slaves to debt.”
You gotta love it. Occasionally they will put the absolute truth out in the movies. This is the true nature of banking.
As he said, the true value of conflict is in the debt it creates, which is eventually FAR more profitable than the sales of weapons, since the international banksters end up raping the countries indebted to them (which is virtually ALL the countries in the world now, except for 3 or 4) for their resources, once they fall behind on their payments. Quite the Zionist scumbag scam.
im sure obummer has lost much sleep over this letter. sarcasm
obama and his ilk use letters such as this as toilet paper and laugh all the way to the bank…………..
