Well here we go with the latest line from Obama-saviour. Now there might be two combat brigades(5000 troops) leaving Iraq by the end of the year, not the one or two brigades that he had promised to get suckers to vote for him. No more 16 months to get out of Iraq either, who believed in change? WHo thought the war in Iraq was crippling our economy? WHo said they would set the mission and the generals would get their mission from the President?

It truly saddens me that our young men and women of the Armed Forces believed this POS when he stood before them and LIED to their faces. I can only hope the worst for him as he is a POS with no Code or Honor.

WHo voted for him because he was ending the occupation of Iraq? Squirm.
First his words back in the day...

Then the latest story from BBC that was released about 7 hours ago.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/7914061.stm

I won this bet, wanna wager that there will be wide spread violence preventing our people from leaving Iraq during the December Elections??

Where are all the adoring Obamanites now? Where are you hiding? Where are all the indignant, angry cries of "Get out of Iraq -- NOW!" The Associated Press reports this morning in a story by Anne Flaherty (not some right-wing nut case website) that even after Obama makes all the troop withdrawals from Iraq, he's going to leave somewhere between 35,000 and 50,000 of them there!

The same story said that Gen. Petraeus and Gen. Odierno (top commander in Baghdad) support the number of 50,000, just being left there, even after the Iraqis have made it crystal-clear they want us the hell out of there! And, according to his fading campaign "promises", so did Obama....

Well, how about it, Obama-worshippers?! Where are you? Why aren't you carrying torches and pitchforks in the street? Why aren't you hanging Obama in effigy this morning? Go ahead -- put anybody on "ignore" who troubles you with the truth, but the planes will continue to arrive from Iraq, and Afghanistan, with the bodies of dead American soldiers. And now, and going forward, it's all YOUR FAULT, and the fault of this LIAR you've elected as President! Ah, but he can "talk", and you love him, don't you....

I knew that was a load of horse crap when I first saw it. He might see a hypothetical rate of withdrawal, but when it comes right down to it, he is trying to maintain security and get as many people out as possible. New considerations- new office. Other than that- who cares? I didn't vote for him for this reason, I voted for him for others.

Once again Obama is guilty of flip-flopping , thrown his 16 month U.S. troop with drawl time line under the bus and if rhetorical gymnastics were a olympic event, Obama would have swept gold medals.

Here are Obama's flip-flop statements on Iraq war, troop with drawl time line from his speeches:

A "residual force"? Come on, Jovial -- this latest Obama trick is complete nonsense! He's going to leave a THIRD of the soldiers in Iraq, and send who knows how many more thousands into the meatgrinder of Afghanistan. The Iraqis want us OUT! We Conservatives want us OUT! Now, how can Liberals approve of Obama's deceitful stupidity concerning something so central to his campaign promises as getting out of Iraq?


I know we disagree in a very spirited way, and at least you are one member of the liberal Left who doesn't hide behind an "ignore" screen. I respect you for that, and I'd also say that you and I, and many, many true Conservatives and Liberals alike have hated and despised this whole stinking Iraq war. But how in the world can Liberals, who were callling for Bush's head on a platter because of Iraq, defend Obama dragging the withdrawal process into well over a year from now -- and then, when August 2010 finally comes, LEAVING A THIRD OF THE SOLDIERS THERE!? No, Jovial. This cuts all the way to the bedrock of what Obama has stood for and campaigned for. The man is a liar, and, just as we are seeing in his "handling" of the economy, it is HE who is being handled! He's being manipulated by nearly everyone and, frankly, he's entirely out of his depth!

Since the Libs do not want to speak up on this or the other posts on the topic, I am left to assume that they are just so happy to have Bush and the Reps out of power that they will tolerate ANYTHING from their god Obama.

I am just waiting for some terrorist to come forward saying he was tortured in some foreign prison under the rendition that Obama extended so Pelosi can call for war crimes against him.

The important factor to me in the scope of withdrawal is that we now have a CIC who isn't dragging his heels getting us out of Iraq. As for this residual force, they will be protecting our interests there as a worse case scenario in case something doesn't go as planned when we pull out. I don't have a problem with this plan so far.

Bush set the wheels in motion for this before he left so Obama is cleaning up the mess.

Let the justifications for Obama's flip-flop begin! When all else fails... blame Bush!

Obama is protecting our interests? OMG... Obama was against us even going into Iraq, so now another flip-flop according to you.

What he lead others to believe is of no concern to me because having had 2 sons over there I was well aware of what hurdles we faced.
