Barack Hoodwinks His Peeps on Iraq

Lost the original post with the server problems. Barack insists that his judgment on Iraq was superior to Hillary’s. Oh really? Well boys and girls, here’s a grip on reality. Barack will say anything, to anyone to advance his cause. He has no ground truth or convictions. You doubt me? Ask Jeremiah Wright about his steadfast friend? You know, Uncle Jeremiah? How about Michael Pfleger? How about Jim Johnson? Hell, just listen to Barack:

A big shout out to Ed Morrissey at Hot Air. He was the first, best I can determine, to expose the latest Barack hypocrisy. Ed notes:

Q: But you’ve said troops should be withdrawn (from Iraq).

A: No, no, I’ve never said troops should be withdrawn.

Really? This is what his website offers for his Iraq policy:

Bringing Our Troops Home

Obama will immediately begin to remove our troops from Iraq. He will remove one to two combat brigades each month, and have all of our combat brigades out of Iraq within 16 months. Obama will make it clear that we will not build any permanent bases in Iraq. He will keep some troops in Iraq to protect our embassy and diplomats; if al Qaeda attempts to build a base within Iraq, he will keep troops in Iraq or elsewhere in the region to carry out targeted strikes on al Qaeda.

And from the same page, Obama notes that he introduced legislation in January 2007 (the start of the surge) that would have removed all of our troops by March 2008. He spent most of the primaries arguing with Hillary Clinton about which of them would actually produce a complete withdrawal. MoveOn and Code Pink support Obama specifically because he would commit to a fast withdrawal of American troops from Iraq — except for an embassy guard — and Hillary had a more nuanced position regarding precipitous withdrawal.

Barack is doing back flips at a rate that will get him on the girl’s Russian gymnastic team. I know he is promising change, I just never imagined it meant he would change every position he’s ever taken.

Let’s face the fact. Barack is a world class bamboozler. Okie doke?

And the Trolls come here and wonder why we don`t support him.

Comment by Northwest rain | 2008-06-11 22:48:31

As my good friend says — Obama doesn’t have a consistent position on anything. BOBO is a liar.

We have absolutely no idea what BOBO will do if he gets the keys to the white house — he is a big unknown and a big zero.

And YES! This is why we do not and WILL NEVER vote for Obama.

Also his trolls are another reason why many of us do not and will never support BOBO.

Every time trolls drop in — BOBO loses more votes!!

P.U.M.A.

Comment by Seattle Moss | 2008-06-11 23:03:11

I just have one question for these trolls that hang out at the mall with their thug friends.

How do you keep those baggy pants from falling down around your ankles?

Comment by Mirlo | 2008-06-12 04:42:49

I can tell you, because they have their sh*t in the head, not in the pants, ok?
(sorry, this may seem a bad joke to some, but it just came to mind when I read your question)

On the FRONT PAGE of the National Press Club website, lol. Michelle Obama will be on The View the morning of June 18 2008, I wonder of anybody will ask her if about Larry Sinclair, lol.

http://npc.press.org/
Larry Sinclair on Obama
News Conference
June 18, 2008 3:00 PM
Larry reveals the truth about Democratic Presidential Candidate Barack Obama.

Obamatron’s website email system has no security in place, oh what fun this can be, lol. Some of their own medicine as payback!!

You can go here:
http://my.barackobama.com/page/invite/church

1)Send out email to anybody, (other blogs, newsrooms etc.)

2)Where it says “Your email” just use any email, make one up, lol.

3)In the message area, delete the Obamatron garbage and insert your own massage, lol.

4) Now just press SEND MESSAGE and away it is sent.

The person’s getting the email will see a small disclaimer at the bottom of the email they get saying: ” A user has sent this message from BarackObama.com. The sender’s name, email address, subject and message have not been verified.”

The return (REPLY) email address will show what ever email you used to send the email, lol.

Let this be a warning to ALL Obamatron, you want to play games on the internet pretending to be one of us then we can play that game too, lol. Imagine all the emails coming from the Obamatron website with a return email to anywhere our imagination can think of, lol.

This guy is amazing — of course the MSM will never call him on this, right?

I love the way he keeps claiming his policies are different than Hillary’s — meanwhile, his stuff is just weaker, watered down, recycled versions of what she said ages ago.

Sort of like some kid always copying your homework in high school.

Oy. Where is the real leadership?

Guess we all know the answer to that one. Kicked to the curb.

That’s exactly how I feel this party has treated me.

Well it’s the reason that McCain said he cant comment on everything said by Obama because he’d be changing his own comments on a daily basis……..LOL Got to give him that one! Sounds pretty accurate to me! Obama is a fraud that has one agenda it’s called OBAMA! The HOPE is for the saps dumb enough to believe it.. The CHANGE is for the baby’s diaper! LOL

MoveOn and Code Pink support Obama specifically because

MoveOn support Obarky because Soros and the Pritzkers control MoveOn and they’re backing Obarky all the way. That whole thing’s been rigged from the get-go. That’s one of the biggest crimes of his stinking campaign and no one’s brought it up yet.

Comment by JoseyJ | 2008-06-11 22:21:27

Exactly!! rigged from the gitgo!

Comment by David Axisrutt | 2008-06-11 22:43:40

AFAIK MoveOn held an online poll – like a typical CNN poll – to see which candidate they should support. Like really early in things. I’ve seen people admit they voted several times.

You can’t control an online poll anyway. If it’s based on cookies you simply clear your cookie cache and vote again. But I’m guessing most punters wouldn’t be that smart. And that means you just click whatever you want over and over again. So there was no control at all. And that means they really didn’t care who won or how they won. So it had to be a sham.

Soros and the Pritzkers have invested at least $5 million personally in Barky through MoveOn. One of the Pritzkers works with MoveOn; the other works with Barky. Do the math. But the math also says all this egregious funding MoveOn get – goes straight to Obama.

I call that a fix. And truly undemocratic.

Comment by Obama Trolls Are Idiots | 2008-06-11 22:57:34

Dailyidiots pride themselves in being able to use bots to skew polls.

Dailyidiots pissed off because FOX said Michelle Obama/Marxist Baby Mama.

I guess we need to go to the Urban Dictionary before we say anything. Unless someone told me I thought that was a compliment.

Guess they also think nothing wrong with a presidential candidate slapping his wife’s ass on television.

Take out the daily – they just idiots.

JUST SAY NO TO BLACK LIBERATION MARXIST THEOLOGY

NO OBAMA/MARXIST
MCCAIN 2008 or until Hillary rises

 

Comment by JozefAL | 2008-06-11 23:07:52

Well, MoveOn.org did, just before SuperTuesday (after pretty much all the Democrats other than Clinton and Obama had effectively dropped out), send out 2 e-mails to its “members”, the first asking if the group should endorse a candidate and then asking which candidate should be endorsed with the proviso that only a candidate who received 2/3 of the vote would gain the group’s formal endorsement.
Now, what irritated me the most about this was the fact that of the group’s “3.2 million members” (as it’s pleased to state in virtually every e-mail) fewer than 300,000 voted either to endorse Obama or Clinton. That’s LESS than 10% of the group’s “membership”, and the group obviously (or conveniently) forgot that, of the two candidates following the Betray-Us controversy, Hillary was the one who stood up for the group’s RIGHT to take out such an ad (Obama couldn’t be bothered to vote on the censure measure since it was a “waste” of the Senate’s time).
Admittedly, I didn’t vote on an endorsement; I found it to be absurd. The group should not have taken sides since both candidates’ views were largely the same on practically every single issue that mattered to MoveOn.org as an organization. Either MoveOn.org’s membership is really much less than the group states or, like me, the overwhelming majority of the group’s members didn’t see any real difference or just felt it was a waste of time and energy. (Then again, the MoveOn.org vote was pretty caucusy in its participation level.)

The democrat party as we knew it — is dead.

Perhaps one day there will be another party which will take on the name of the Democratic Party and will strive to include the former core moderate democrats.

Donna is a racist Brazile is one of the worst campaign managers in the history of campaign managers — and Howie Dean and Nancy Poolosie are in a class to themselves.

Comment by Seattle Moss | 2008-06-11 23:07:22

I can never vote for a party that fixes the elections like they do in Communist Countries.
A real wake up call!!!

As Jessie says…

No Obama/Marxism

I don’t want black liberation racist theology anywhere near the oval office.
Take your hate somewhere else losers!!!

 

Comment by Fred C. Dobbs | 2008-06-12 04:28:28

I got news for you: The Democratic Party was dead in 1980, when that supercillious dipsomaniac from Massachusetts decided that, if he wasn’t going to be POTUS, then NO Democrat was.

Since then, it’s been the Kiss Teddy’s Ass party (After all, he’s JFK’s brother!).

Any rational analysis of the Clinton administration before 1996 would tell you that he was one of the better Republican presidents of the 20th century. I think a bunch of the old guard still dislike him for not gratuitouly tinkering with the economy and easing their re-elections.

Of course, that made way for The Evil Newt, too, so it was a mixed blessing.

Since early March, the more time goes by the weaker Obambi gets. Let’s keep the heat on these frauds. At some point, Pelosi and Reid are going to get the idea “What if Obambi hurts our congressional election chances in the fall?” Hopefully that question will jump into their heads before the convention August 31

Comment by sjl106 | 2008-06-11 22:11:03

Fox News would more than likely play this over and over again. Though we knew he changed his mind on the very safe atmosphere he gave his 2002 speech (anti-rally in his district, Trinity Church folks)and then said he didn’t know how he would have voted for it if he were in the Senate and he and bush didn’t differ much on the war. Obama is a con man plain and simple. I don’t believe that the msm, excluding a few of them, will go after him until after the convention. I am seeing a little of it starting to begin on MSNBC on Morning Joe, when he got back from his 3 week leave and Hillary had already given her speech, he said Hillary is out and “now were coming after you.”

If they do it is what many of us already knew was going to happen and I hope the slime obama.

Comment by JoseyJ | 2008-06-11 22:25:25

On the campaign trail in 2004, Obama railed against Congress funding the war.
But a few months later, he was on the Senate floor – voting to fund the war.

We know where Hillary stands on the issues.
Obama is a con – a flim flam artist.

Comment by Peggy Sue | 2008-06-11 22:13:00

Hello? The man’s a fraud, a snake oil salesman extraordinaire.

What is the single position that Obamatrons threw again and again in Senator Clinton’s face?

“He was against the War from the start. He will bring the troops home.”

Meanwhile, this was all based on a single speech given before he was even in the US Senate, before he had to cast a real live vote [none of this "present" nonsense that he manuevered in the Illinois Congress], and an issue on which he has danced around ever since.

He is as clumsy and nonspecific on this issue as he is on every other. Unless, of course, he’s lifting someone else’s comments and/or positions. He’s willing to tell the listener anything he/she may want to hear. And if that answer won’t do, there’s always another, delivered with a smile and the reminder that questioning him or his flip-flopping responses is Old Style Politics.

But then, we have the unfortunate, unexpected questions/problems. The recent snafu on Johnson, vetting the vetter. Obama stumbles and bumbles his way through it.

Solution? Throw the problematic individual under the bus. Or get him to resign “for the good of the campaign.”

See a pattern?

The bamboozling continues. The hoodwinker, the Wizard of Oz survives. The problem is that this Magician only sounds grand at the podium until the curtain is drawn back and the sunlight streams in.

Wake up America! Before it’s too late.

It’s different like this.

Barky lied. He said repeatedly he’s never wavered on this issue. Repeatedly.

It’s not about being for or being against. It’s about lying.

And rule #1: Barky lies. A LOT.

Got it, sh*t 4 brains? Now go home. Barky’s calling.

Comment by Acadian | 2008-06-11 23:19:41

That quote about him never changing is from 2004. Can you show that it wasn’t true then?

Many, many people have changed their position on the invasion since it happened. Do you condemn all of them for that, or only him?

Comment by joeysky | 2008-06-11 23:31:05

It doesn’t matter when it was taped, 2004 or 2008…because BO says over and over again recently he never suppported the war. He is supporting the war in this video.

Comment by Acadian | 2008-06-11 23:36:47

Well, I can see a difference between not supporting the war and not simply leaving an invaded country to its own devices.

But, hey. Maybe you don’t.

Comment by TeakWoodKite | 2008-06-12 01:35:36

Conversely;

I can see a difference between not supporting the war and not simply leaving an invaded country to its own devices.

They want to be left to their own devices! We invaded their country!

Your master is lying worse than a rug. If he had been consistent in his position he may have garnered some credibility, dare I say some respect, even though I might not have agreed with him. Not BO! Oh No that “Gemmie Some” crap went right to his egofied head.

Now being a kite, I know a thing or two about which way the wind blows…and professionally speaking as a kite, BO has some serious issues not knowing when to straighten up and fly right!

Obama isn’t bringin’ the troops home any time soon like he said he would in the debates with Hillary.

According to this site, she’s not out of the race, is she? Isn’t that one thing you’re all basing hopes on?

One thing I’ve noticed is that any questions – any at all – immediately bring a veritable FLOOD of insults and irrationality. Is that how you expect to present yourselves?

Comment by AnninCa | 2008-06-11 23:55:46

Why discuss anything with Obama supporters? First of all, the primary is over. Waste of energy.

Second, I’ve never found Obama supporters open and able to discuss issues.

The point of this thread isn’t for your critique of us. The point is that Obama campaigned negatively against Hillary on his great war record. In fact, Bill Clinton said that his record was a “fairy tale,” which Obama promptly turned into a race comment. *blink*

And now there is the video showing exactly why his campaign was based on a lie.

Doesn’t that bother you?

Don’t you feel a bit hoodwinked?

Don’t you feel a bit embarassed that you bought into his fairytale?

Comment by Acadian | 2008-06-12 00:01:26

I never bought into anything.

I asked a question.

A question that hasn’t been answered.

(Anticipating: citing voting records and such doesn’t mean ’support’. It means ‘research’).

Comment by street_parade | 2008-06-11 23:23:50

Let me try and explain. Obama’s whole campaign is based around the notion of his superior ‘judgement’. Why does Obama have superior ‘judgement’? Because Obama was ‘against’ the war. In truth, his ‘principled’ stand against the war consisted of a little heard speech at an anti-war rally in a liberal district in Chicago months before he even announced he was running for the US Senate. (Axelrod helpfully re-created this speech in 2007.)

The left’s relentless attacks on Clinton are based almost entirely on her vote for the Use of Force Authorization. Other than that speech, BO has done nothing regarding Iraq. He votes to fund it (except when MoveOn tells him not to), he said in 2004 that ‘his position wasn’t very different from George Bush at this point’ and claimed that he ‘never said’ troops should be withdrawn.

In short hand, he’s a hypocrite and a double-talking politician who takes a ‘principled’ stand on exactly NOTHING. He is the ‘air quote’ candidate (apologies to Dr. Evil).

Comment by Acadian | 2008-06-11 23:34:57

I just checked his voting record, and most of his votes in the Iraq / Defense arena are either Nay or not voting, unless they had to do with troop reduction or appropriations bills that had withdrawal timelines attached. For those, he voted Yes.

http://www.votesmart.org/voting_category.php?can_id=9490&type=category&category=22&go.x=17&go.y=12

In fact, for the votes on Iraq / Defense, Obama’s record and Clinton’s are almost exactly the same for the bills that they both voted for.

Hmmm.

Comment by street_parade | 2008-06-11 23:49:58

Exactly as I said..and your point is?

Comment by Acadian | 2008-06-11 23:55:36

That it’s ridiculous to take Obama to task about his position on Iraq but give Clinton a pass, especially in light of their practically-identical records on the matter.

Disdaining Obama with air quotes for his record isn’t too convincing when that record is all but exactly the same as Clinton’s – and you’re not going after her or questioning the votes.

Comment by street_parade | 2008-06-12 00:27:55

You do realize that the primary is over and that your guy ‘won’, right? Why are you STILL harping on about Clinton?

I gave neither Clinton nor Obama ‘a pass’ as you put it. HE has campaigned on his ’superior judgement’ and the only thing he has to base that on his ‘opposition’ to the war. His ‘opposition’ was political expediency without any political consequences. So what are you saying? She was for it, before she was against it, and he was against it before he was for it?

Just like his stance on Iran’s Revolutionary Guard….during the primaries he atttacked Clinton for supporting Kyl-Lieberman, BO was conveniently absent from that vote (again *sigh*). Last week at an AIPAC meeting he decided that yep, Iran’s Revolutionary Guard does support terrorist groups afterall. FLIP FLOP, FLIP FLOP.

Comment by Acadian | 2008-06-12 00:30:19

So YOUR point is that ‘flip-flops’ are more notable for him, it seems.

Well, I’m sure you notice them more. Everything you say about him is true for Clinton, as far as I can see.

Okay, I’ll ask. Where did I say voting records don’t matter?

Comment by Mawm | 2008-06-12 06:29:36

Clinton took a lot of heat for not disavowing her vote on the Iraq War. So many pundits were egging her on to admit she made a mistake and she wouldn’t do it. She took the political hits for that.

Obama, on the other hand, completely lies when he says he has always been for withdrawl as this video shows. He campaigned hard on this point. Now, this video is fair game, because it shows how brazenly he will lie about his own positions.

Ah. So, when SHE ‘flopped’, you wouldn’t call her on it?

But it’s not cool for someone else?

And you have the nerve to call Obama a hypocrite?

If you give Hillary a pass on that behaviour, then it’s pretty damn hypocritical to condemn Obama when you think he’s done it.

You’re going to have to find another excuse to hate him, I guess. This one’s busted.

Comment by NomNomNom | 2008-06-11 22:59:31

Clinton didn’t run on a platform of not supporting the war, dipstick. She didn’t make the claims about her views that Obeejeezus did.

5 seconds on Google and I prove you wrong – she DID campaign against the war.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/03/02/AR2008030202374.html

And she DID vote to start the war in the first place, right?

No she didn’t.

Comment by Acadian | 2008-06-11 23:22:58

See the Google result. Do you really believe that, in the present climate of DEEP opposition to the war, Hillary didn’t make it a campaign point?

If so, you must be the only one. Nobody else thinks that, because it’s not true.

Comment by beebop | 2008-06-12 06:04:08

She — like her senate colleagues and oblowmes current advisers — voted to authorize what they believed would be a message that would force Saddam to allow the inspectors back in. I am sorry for you that you had such poor schooling. Reading and comprehension skills are a necessary component to good debate. You might also want to stay current on what his attitudes are toward Blackwater and mercenaries. And he had the nerve to criticize Penn? He’s a big Blackwater supporter your candidate! Thinks that when the troops are redeployed to Afghanistan, that the mercenaries should be able to handle Iraq.

D’you know, the label ‘troll’ would be a lot more effective if you guys didn’t use it every time someone asked a question or had a rational disagreement with you.

It really over-plays your hand. Shows your vulnerabilities. Honestly, if you can only reply with attacks and insults, why bother? Is it a self-affirmation sort of thing?

Comment by uhh somehow this notion that I am qualified to be president is uhh uhh ridiculous | 2008-06-11 23:38:03

If there were ever an Obama follower that could intellligently engage in a conversation in which they answer any of the concerns voters have about his judgment, associations, and lack of knowledge and experience that would be a great help.
The problem is there is no way to justify all the lies and corruption perpetuated by him and his campaign.
A rational disagreement for Obama disciples includes bashing Hillary relentlessly, telling those who question him they are racist losers, and blatantly denying facts.
If you’d rather be something other than a troll, tell us why Obama is qualified and worthy of the AMERICAN PRESIDENCY. And don’t rely on Obama religion to make your point.
(No Hopey Changey- that doesn’t cut it.)

Comment by Acadian | 2008-06-11 23:41:17

Well, if you’d care to read back, I haven’t been lying, corrupting, bashing, calling anyone racist, or denying facts.

Looks to me like I’ve been pretty rational, and yet nobody’s answered that first, very simple question. Try to leave out the insults and dogma, okay?

Comment by beebop | 2008-06-12 06:08:57

No … but if we could get an answer that doesn’t ultimately lead to but but but Clinton … that is such an old Republican whine and — speaking only for me in this — I would hope that Democrats would have better sense. Yes and no are really such simple and elegant answers. Far too infrequently used, don’t you think? And. Again, speaking for me, wasn’t this the change from Washington as usual campaign? When does that start?

It almost seems like this quote is being passed off as being said after his current position was established. Isn’t it true that he has become more aggresive in his timeline? Is that really so odd? That after four more years of war, he would think it is more pressing to remove the troops quicker? The video is from 2004.

Obamabots believe that Obama is the Anti-War, get out of Iraq at any cost and leave the middle east.Obama is the Messiah who will take our defense budget and spend it on health care.
HOW NAIVE!!!

The fact is that Obama hasn’t a clue what he would do.
At a debate where he said he would get out of Iraq in 60 days ,Tim(the Bloated)Russert asked him what he would do if Alqueda set up a base after we leave.
Obama’s stupid answer was that he would go back in to Iraq.
I felt this answer was a turning point in the campaign and showed me the Horror of his lack of understanding of the war on terrorism.
McCain responded the next day by reminding us that Alqueda was already in Iraq and that it would be irresponsible to take troops out and then start another war.
I felt this was one of the strongest moments for McCain and when he said we shall never surrender, that was the moment I knew that there was another choice if Hillary were to be cheated of the nomination.
Obama is neither anti-war or pro security of the United States. He is just waiting like Bush for someone to tell him what he is.

Comment by David Axisrutt | 2008-06-11 23:08:51

You can say that again. He probably doesn’t even know the address of the White House.

Of course, saying that troops shouldn’t be removed right after an invasion, even if you opposed that invasion, is actually not hypocritical.

It’s called being realistic.

Hey, didn’t Hillary vote to invade and then campaign on opposing the invasion?

Comment by NomNomNom | 2008-06-11 23:07:01

Firstly, she voted to give Bush the authority to invade, which is somewhat different than voting to invade.
Secondly, I have never said Clinton has not made errors in judgment: I have said that I do not think she is the flaming hypocrite that Obutthead is.
Also: nearly everyone backed the freakin war based upon false intelligence reports in a climate that, much as every word now is misrepresented as racism, was then misrepresented as anti -patriotism.
I simply do not believe that a gutless wonder like Obarky would have done any differently than Clinton. His supernumerous present votes give the lie to any credibility.

Comment by Acadian | 2008-06-11 23:17:11

Do you have it printed there on you work station “when in doubt, blame Clinton?” NEWSFLASH! You must have missed a meeting. Your new competition is McCain and I guess the game plan is to blame Bush. Let’s see how successful that is. What is he going to run on if the war is going swimmingly and troops are being withdrawn? His housing record? How much he did for the economy? Environment — don’t forget he voted for the Cheney Energy Bill (she didn’t by the way)? Jobs? There’s that nasty little story about the Maytag workers, which I am sure that the Republicans will play here in Ohio and next door in Michigan first thing after the Convention. So, tell me, my Canadian friend, are you here to protect NAFTA?

Comment by Acadian | 2008-06-12 10:12:35

Comment by Acadian | 2008-06-12 10:14:11

Because by now the Iraqis should have gotten their shit together, I suppose. Isn’t it better to leave when things are improving rather than when you’re at the start of a downhill fall?

I predicted this weeks ago after seeing how many of Obama’s big corporate supporters have big-money contracts in Iraq.

I called it: he will not remove the troops from Iraq.

Obama will keep our boys there to be like security guards for his buddies corporate interests.

My second prediction?

If president, Obama will lift the trade embargo with Iran.

Why?

Because G.E. is still doing business in Iran.

G.E. is one of Oabma’s biggest corporate fund-raising bundlers.

G.E. owns NBC and MSNBC.

And which cable news station has been the biggest Obama cheerleader?

It’s easy to connect the dots.

Yup. Each and every day they wear out more GE turbines on planes and burn up the contacts on GE controllers on ships in the Gulf and use up Raytheon parts in RADAR sets, which need refreshing, and buy lots of cyber junk from MS, Dell, Harris, Collins Radio, Loral and a host of Usual Suspects.

There is no activity so profitable as slaughtering our fellow human beings…

If that is not a smoking gun for Obama’s hypocriscy it’s because all the guns are in the ghetto.

We’ve all been seeing this for a long time. Obama’s positions depend on who he’s pandering at the moment the words exit his mouth.

Obama the flip flopper looks like a spinning top compared to John Kerry’s wind surfing.

In fact, Obama flips and flops so fast that it creates the wind for John Kerry to wind surf by.

Barack Obama will own everything he says and everything he does, and every thing he has done. He will own who he hangs out with. He will own his duplicitous pandering. You will own it. All of it. I guarantee it. The Republicans aren’t going to treat barack obama with kids gloves and let him change the subject. There’s no Daddy and mommy Howard and Donna that are going to stand in front of him. barack Obama will own up to all the things he has managed to deflect by changing the subject. Those days are OVER. No more Deflect and Reroute. It ain’t gonna happen. If he tries, the swiftboats will eat him for lunch. This mess is all yours. Enjoy it.

Well he never said “withdrawl”. He said “remove”.
So on a technicality I suppose he is correct. I just wonder if they means something different in his mind. BO and MO play games with words. Remember she was sayng she meant to say “really proud” not just “proud”. There is a difference ya know.:O

What I find ironic is that he is again stealing the policies of the other candidates. In this video it seems he is taking HIllary’s proposal to end the war. I remember a debate when he did the same thing to John Edwards right in front of millions of viewers. They are hoping we will not remember this stuff and will just go out and blindly vote based on the wisdom and expierence of the Obama campaign.

Now come on everyone we need to fall in line like good littledemocrats! Now watch as he bedazel’s you with his bamboozelment!

How could you remove all combat troops? You would still need some combat to help with stabalize the region while downsizing. It is too hostile over there so I cannot imagine how that would work. Hillary had said she would make her decision based on her commanders in the field advising her. BO on the same debate said he would not take advice since it was his roll as president to make this crucial decision. This man scares me!

Comment by Mr.Murder | 2008-06-12 10:06:55

Remove “combat troops” and end “permanent bases” but bring in mercenaries and increase the temporary bases.

That way we can fight without having to do the UCMJ thing, it’s CONTRAPALOOZA!

Rezko watch has and interesting post about the timing of this tape
Morrissey did not give the exact date of the interview. A quick check of the YouTube page shows it to have been April 5, 2004.

Cha-Ching!

Why is April 5, 2004, significant? Well, it was a mere two days after the famous April 3, 2004, private party at now-convicted felon, political fixer Antoin “Tony” Rezko’s Wilmette mansion which he hosted in honor of Iraqi-British billionaire businessman Nadhmi Auchi.

This is the very same party reportedly attended by the newly-minted Illinois senatorial candidate Barack Obama and his wife, Michelle Obama. It is the very same party at which then Illinois State Senator Obama reportedly “made a few toasts” to Mr. Auchi. It is the very same party which neither Sen. Obama or Mr. Auchi now recalls attending.

Comment by AngryWhitePerson | 2008-06-11 23:42:26

Found a great quote regarding Obama’s amazing anti-war speech:

He spoke at our first antiwar rally. He spent most of his speech detailing all the wars in history he supported, then finally made a distinction between just wars and “dumb” wars, and going into Iraq, which was still six months down the road then, was a “dumb war,” and he flatly opposed it. Good, that put him on our side, and some of us organized a fundraiser for him for his Senate race. But a friend of mine, and also an Obama campaigner, at that first rally, nudged me and asked, “Who was that speech for? Certainly not this crowd.” Now we know.

After he visited Iraq when the war was on, he turned. Now we had to set aside whether it was right or wrong to invade, now we had to find the “smart” path to victory, not Bush’s “dumb” path. Also, in dealing with Iran, we had to leave on the table bombing their nuclear sites. For this, a lot of the local antiwar activists started calling him “Barack O’bomb ‘em”. He wasn’t listening much to us anymore, but to folks much higher up in the DLC orbit. He had bigger plans.

Source

And it’s highly suspect that “3,000 attended” that famous rally, not two thousand or even one thousand. Chicagoans Against War has a yahoo message group and some guy did a head count and approximated 800 were in attedance. Not counting those milling about for lunch.

Comment by Mr.Murder | 2008-06-19 23:59:29

“3,000″ attended the rally because the number was polled to identify with 9-11 the best?

Bless you, Larry, for being the (stubborn) voice of reason. There are occasions when one simply has to forget about party affiliation and choose patriotism. This is one of them. Barack Obama will never be a patriotic option for so many reasons, among them his lack of honesty and courage to make a stand on issues, and not to mention – the company he keeps (Wright, Pfleger, Farrakhan, et. al.)!

About Obama’s bounce after being declared the presumptive nominee …

MSM keep saying it’s a six-point bounce because he’s polling six points ahead of McCain now.

However, Obama was 3-points ahead of McCain two weeks ago.

Ergo, Obama’s “presumptive nominee” bounce only gave him an additionl 3 points.

And with the margin of error being +/-5 points, well …

…. that’s awfully BAD news for Obama. It’s essentially no bounce at all.

You need to take off those rose colored glasses! Obama did not part the RED SEA!
He did NOT lead his people to freedom. He did not rise from the dead and he most certainly did not know Rezco, Pfleger,Wright, Ayers, Dohorn, and Johnson had questionable backgrounds! How could he..He is THE ONE!

“In a startling moment at a campaign stop, Hillary described herself and McCain as stalwarts in the experience game and boiled down Obama’s credentials to “a speech in 2002″.
Maybe HRC’s bigger point was: Where was Obama’s big anti-war speech in 2003? Where was Obama’s big anti-war speech in 2004, at Kerry’s convention? Where was Obama’s big anti-war speech in 2005? Where was Obama’s big anti-war speech in 2006? Where was Obama’s anti-war filibuster in 2007? Was stopping the war worth standing up, Barack? Where was Obama’s anti-war filibuster in 2008? Was stopping the war worth standing up, Barack?

Perhaps HRC was asking, “If he’s got more than a 2002 speech – where is it?”

Obama’s foreign policy experience is somewhere between Rodney King’s,”Can’t we all just get along”, and Alfred E. Neuman’s, “What, me worry?”

I often wonder about the DNC. If they were going to fix the nomination, couldn’t they have picked a better candidate?

How can anyone expect the democrats to close ranks and support someone who is only consistent at changing his polices and then lying about it? This guy is a corrupt moving target. No wonder why Senator Clinton said in her speech to work for electing Barak Obama is going to be “hard”.

I have this incredible image of people phone banking for Barak Obama complete with daily prints outs of ever changing positions piling so high that people can’t find the phones.

He was against the war before he was for it before he was against it. Wow! He is worse than John sKerry!

No, he was against the war when he was canpaigning in his 37th state. By the time he got to his 57th he had decided he was for the war…

Obama flips and flops more then a fish out of water.
A liar-democratic party such a joke.Donna Brazile,Howard Dean and Nancy P.They all need tovote themselves out.

never will I support Obama or vote for him.well I maybe will vote for him-like vote him gone and be gone-no obama and take his ugly wife with him.

Democratic party leaders and the others delegates who could not stand on their own tow feet or stand up for the people.vote them out as well.

the people behind obama, the one’s behind the usual suspects, are perfectly capable of fixing the GE.

if not by the obvious media propaganda outfits, defamations of character, lies on top of lies, etc….then by the most covert means available.

little barky is the tip of the iceberg. the manchurian egeomaniac in his very own empty suit. a pawn, if you will.

perhaps he’s aware of this; perhaps, as the Big Dog says….it’s his world of obama fantasy fact/lies .

i hope that video goes far and wide. can’t wait for the spin.

the obamabots are choking on the kool-aid with this one.

Ha! I saw this coming miles away. Can’t believe the out of Iraq bloggers who backed him 1000% didn’t see this miles away too but what do I know, I’m just some stupid soldier who volunteered for this shit’s wife. The only candidate capable of decisively ending the debacle in Iraq is Hillary Clinton…….end of discussion!

Thank you for posting this video. We are a country with a third world press or this would have shown up before. Something very frightening is going on here and it isn’t just Obama.

I don’t recognize the Democratic Party anymore and I wonder what will happen at the convention? They want to push this nomination through without a fair vote. What are the real numbers? Not all states have had their conventions so it’s impossible to know and why did the leadership of the Party feel they had to push superdelegates to make a decision? Why did the RBC take four delegates from Sen. Clinton?

I would like to hear from someone who is a Clinton delegate because I want to know if there is pressure and what kind. I was supposed to be a delegate to the county convention, but my name wasn’t on the list. Two weeks after the caucus I was invited to a meeting at the home of the precinct chairman and he still had the blue sign in sheet. When I asked, he said there was no copier at the headquarters and he needed the names.I pushed him on it because I had heard on the news not all precinct had reported and this was several days later. Now he has resigned. I wish I had filed an official complaint, but I doubt it would have helped.

I read a report in the Denver post, at the state convention, they were choosing an at large delegate and called for a voice vote on an Obama supporter and ignored calls for a written vote. What is going to happen in Denver? I managed to get a pass, but my husband is afraid there will be trouble.

Now I read Obama’s campaign is moving the DNC to Chicago and they will “merge” to make a more efficient campaign. But, he isn’t the nominee yet. To Chicago!! What is going on?
