Obama Taking Shots From Democrats Over Arrogant Iraq Policy

It’s gotten pretty bad when liberal defense analysts from the Brookings Institute are raking Obama over the coals:

Said Michael E. O’Hanlon, a Democratic defense analyst at the Brookings Institution: “To say you’re going to get out on a certain schedule — regardless of what the Iraqis do, regardless of what our enemies do, regardless of what is happening on the ground — is the height of absurdity,“he told the Washington Post. “I’m not going to go to the next level of invective and say he shouldn’t be president. I’ll leave that to someone else.”

Discussion question: How sad is it that the success our troops are having in Iraq is proving to be such a inconvenience for Obama and his campaign?

What can we say about a candidate who needs national failure in order to be politically successful?

Well, you can keep saying what you have been; That Obama is just a politician because he is letting the success in Iraq influence how he moves to the center.

What happened to that argument you were making? Are you changing your tactic in order to keep up a phony attack on Obama or are you just a radical hate site?

Why can’t you keep your story straight and why do you keep flip-flopping?

Another woefully transparent strawman. Obama is NOT moving to the center because he is “letting the success in Iraq” influence him. He is moving to the center in an all but desperate attempt to hold on to the nomination in spite of mounting discontent from both the “center” and the far Left wings of the Democrat party, as well as to try and win in November, an increasingly unlikely outcome.

The success in Iraq you credit with influencing his policy pronouncements, is the very success he disparaged as not only unattainable, but unworthy of the effort.

Your candidate is little more than a hapless, opportunistic fraud.

In light of Obama’s Ultra-Liberal voting record, his attempts to move towards the center require amazing acting abilitys. The fact that the Democrat party’s composition proves to have a very high percentage of “Whack-Jobs” these days, who continue, through all logical scrutiny to maintain political viability; unfortunatly point to the gulibility of the American public, when buying into these charades.. Barack may well have the acting chops to succeed..
