Obama's STU: Military

The military was mentions numerous of times in President Obama’s State of the Union Speech. He mainly focused on the military by stating how he was bringing home our troops and how we are basically going to have the best military ever. Obama stated that we have already brought home 33,000 of our troops and that we are going to be bringing home another 34,000 troops, just from Afghanistan. He said that by the end of next year that the war in Afghanistan is going to be over.

I think Obama mentioned this in his speech because it is such a big deal. I mean, our military is the best in the world and it’s going to stay the best. Mentioning that the war in Afghanistan is going to be over by the end of next year is huge! He was being very factorial by giving such good numbers and hopefully an accurate timeline. He needed to prove his point to the Congress, and the world, that he is doing the right thing and that no matter what, we are always the best.
