BLUF

Of the many acronyms I have run across in the Army, my favorite so far is BLUF. It stands for “Bottom line up front”. I watched the President’s speech as well as the democratic response. He is the bottom line up front from my humble perspective:

We are at war, let us win. By attacking the president and his policies, you embolden our enemies. When that happens our kids over here in Iraq are getting killed. Put aside partisan politics, extreme rhetoric, and flat out untrue statements, and support our troops. We can win this thing—if you let us...and stop encouraging our enemies.
