Everyone knows Obama promised to be out of Iraq by the end of 2009. You lack the spine to call him out. It was his sentinal promise--repeated over-and-over. You speak of 'at least there are no increases' as a good news scenario. There are 130,000 soldiers in harm's way. He lied. You lack the guts, even as a so-called anti-war site, to call him out as loudly as you did Bush. Bush believed in the war in Iaq and went in. While that may have been a mistake, Obama DOESN'T believe in it, and he is still there. That is a moral and character failure. What disingenuous crap!
