Obama: 80 US Troops in Chad Seeking Abducted Girls

[geek tragedy]

14. I appreciate your empty condescension, but you really don't know

anything that the rest of us don't.

In terms of reconaissance and intelligence capabilities, why yes the US has technology and savoir faire that Nigeria and Chad lack.

Again, if you have a source (besides your own hind quarters) that establishes the purpose of these 6 2/3 dozen troops is to conquer Africa and exploit its resources, rather than assist in the location of these girls (which would have tremendous PR potential for the US, if one must be crass), please share it with the rest of us, lest we entertain the prospect that you are one of those people who engage in ostentatious cynicism in order to feel more intelligent than the unwashed masses around them.

So, please, provide some evidentiary support rather than vague platitudes and references to stuff "everyone knows."
