Of course, he could have had a staff person call and offer a W.O.R.M. statement.

DUH? Who DOESN'T know that...especially on this site. Sadly, YOU are the one who is missing the point entirely. Obama said last night, essentially, that he was proud of himself because he stood up AGAINST the status quo and voted his CONSCIENCE and how difficult and daring that was for him.Everyone knows that the cornerstone of Obama's entire Presidential campaign is based upon this BOGUS claim (i.e. FAIRY TALE)that he "voted" against the Iraq war. Yet, you are saying that when the Convention came around and Obama did a complete 180 on this stance, we are all supposed to "understand" that he did this to support the team. Bullshix. Obama is staking his ENTIRE candidacy on the fact that he (supposedly) has the INTEGRITY to stand up against all odds and vote for what's RIGHT. If that is so, then he should have been able to stay true to his belief with a few measley reporters. He did not. Obama backed away from his anti-war stance because that stance did not serve the OBAMA MISSION at that point in time.PERIOD and OBAMA serves OBAMA...PERIOD.

The war was incited by our persistent efforts to hem Russia in by turning former Soviet-block nations all along Russia’s homeland borders into NATO-member military states.

And by our efforts to put an anti-ballistic missile system directly on the Russian border.

And by a paid and registered Republic of Georgia agent and lobbiest, who just happens to be a PNAC member, president of the Committee for the Liberation of Iraq, and John McCain’s top foreign policy advisor.

And by the Georgians themselves, who launched a full-scale military incursion into South Ossetia, killing 2,000 Ossetians the Russians had a UN mandate to protect, killing offical Russian peacekeepers stationed there in the process.

The Russians retalliated the following day. They were understandably pissed. They had understandably had quite enough. They know we’re up to the same shit in Ukraine. A reasonable person might argue that the Russian overreaction was planned and purposeful. And a reasonable person would be absolutely correct.

I don’t like John McCain’s games or the long-term intentions of the people he represents.

Again, just words and no one of any importance during that time even knew about him or this speech.

Why the Democratic National Convention. At which Obama gave a speech. How did the Democratic nominee (Kerry) vote on the Iraq war resolution? In favor of it. So it is clear to any person with half a brain that Obama as using the intelligence reports as a way to make cover so he would not have to contradict the vote of the Democratic nominee. It's called being a team player (putting your agenda behind that of the nominee at the convention at which you gave a speech.) Had Obama not made cover and came out strongly against the resolution om contract to the nominee, everyone here would hold that against him as well. Typical screw him if he does, screw him if he does not blogging. Let’s see, what happened in mid-July 0f 2004? Why the Democratic National Convention. At which Obama gave a speech.
