Stop this left vs right bull crap because it's getting so old. There has been plenty of good things that have come out of the Iraq war for the Iraqi people.
"I DON'T KNOW..." JUST WORDS? Or merely a junior politician selling out what he claims here as being his continued protest against the war for poltical points in 2004 with then Democratic nominee John Kerry....Perhaps Kerry is returning the favor with his support of Obama despite his state overwhelmingly supporting Clinton in their primary.
Excuses Excuses and back peddling and he gets a pass.....
Obama later justified these comments as an effort to avoid a split with his party's presidential ticket: Both John Kerry and John Edwards had voted for the war, after all.
Yet this explanation was undermined when Obama repeated the point more than two years later. "I'm always careful to say that I was not in the Senate, so perhaps the reason I thought [the war] was such a bad idea was that I didn't have the benefit of U.S. intelligence," he told The New Yorker's David Remnick in October 2006. "And, for those that did, it might have led to a different set of choices."
Come on boys and girls, how many of you actually know the language in the Iraq War Resolution? (wiki it). Not everyone who voted for the Resolution, voted for Bush to take the country to war. On this subject, many Obama supporters are no more intelligent than Bush supporters in 2004- What alternative would Obama have offered- how else would he suggest getting Bush to go through the UN first, and the Security Council fast-tracking UNMOVIC? Obama ducks tough issues- this is his record.
Go to : "barack obama on iraq. Opposition from the start". It makes no sense to say that he changed his mind because when he first opposed the war the entire country backed bush. Then the support collapsed year by year. And when the support of the war got really low, that's when your dear hillary started saying that the war was a stupid idea.
this is just propaganda. He was against the war when nobody was in America and when it was the most unpopular to be. That's what hillary fans don't want to believe because their candidate got wrong the most important vote of her career by voting for the war (you talk about vision!). The rest is politics as Obama explains in this interview.
RON PAUL 2012!! Good Job pulling the troops out like you promised Obama you stinky liar!
