Nobody’s Perfect: The American Embassy in Iraq VS The Pentagon

Nobody’s Perfect:

This week, we have two buildings that are in grave danger: They are both big, they both employ thousands of people, and they both could be taken over. (Or have been already.)

FIRST: The American Embassy in Iraq.

President Bush really didn’t talk about it much, but when he decided to build the biggest embassy in the world, in that unstable country called IRAQ, and on top of that insane idea, make it look more like a summer home for King Saud than an American embassy–well let’s just say it was more than a bit over the top.

Its so big, Obama would even consider living in it.

We understand that the officers like to have a nice place to spend their hours, but did they really need to build the biggest swimming pool in the world?

I’m having a flashback: Saddam was invading Kuwait—and in order to protect the sissy Muslim boys in their palaces, Daddy Bush came to the rescue. And now, we see Obama had to take a few moments from his putt shot on the 18th hole to try to ‘save’ that billion-dollar complex called the Baghdad Embassy from ISIS.

Who would really love a nice dip after their hard days of slaughtering. .

“President Barack Obama announced late Monday that he plans to deploy approximately 275 troops to Iraq who will “provide support and security for U.S. personnel and the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad.”

ONLY 275? They need that for the pool alone. Obama has more guys protecting him than that when he takes a trip to Ireland to drink beer.

“The force is deploying for the purpose of protecting U.S. citizens and property, if necessary, and is equipped for combat,” Obama wrote in a letter to Congress. “This force will remain in Iraq until the security situation becomes such that it is no longer needed.”

The exact number of people being evacuated from Baghdad — the American government prefers to say they are being “relocated” — was not disclosed. But the embassy will remain open, and most of its staff will remain, according to the State Department.

Ha.ha.ha. Notice the words, “No longer needed.” That’s..when? 5055?

Which brings up the second very expensive complex called the Pentagon. It actually costs LESS to build than the Baghdad embassy…only $83 million, as opposed to several billion, but employs over 24,000 thousand people. According to the reports, only 5,500 American are working at that biggest embassy in the world.

Mmmmmm….

And Nobody asks: Which was a bigger waste of taxpayer’s money?

So who wins the Nobody’s Perfect Award for the week?

Or should it be: Which President has wasted taxpayers money the most?

That’s a HARD one, because the figures are all hidden in Cayman Island bank accounts.

Did Bush build that embassy because he expected someday for the Saudi Family to take it over? Or was it for the elite American officers?

If you picked the Embassy in Baghdad I’d have to agree. It wins for being the biggest waste of taxpayer’s money on the planet, second only to Obama’s vacations, in my Nobody’s Opinion.

Glenn Back had this to say about it:

“I hope to God we detonate that thing,” Beck said, but his co-host Pat Gray predicted that American leadership would never order such a move, and it would fall into the hands of extremists first.

“I can guarantee you that’s a listening station,” Beck said of the embassy. “When we were at CNN, we started looking into the Baghdad embassy, and … it was estimated to be over $1 billion at the time. And there were no pictures of this, no one was talking about it, and it is … bigger than all of Vatican City.”

And what will the terrorists say if they mow down the 275 soldiers protecting that Disneyland of opulence? I can hear it now:

“We are coming for the Pentagon, next.”
