    Default Despite Success Obama Would Still Oppose Surge

    This tells us alot about the piss poor judgement of the messiah, known as Obama

    Despite the huge undeniable success of the surge, Obama would still oppose it, and allow the US to lose in Iraq




    Pathetic! Obama Says He Would Still Oppose the Surge... Credits Sunni Awakening Members For the Success!

    But, Please Don't Question His Support For the US Military.

    After meeting with General David Petraeus today, Barack Obama gave credit to the Sunni Awakening members and the Shia militia members for the success of the surge.
    Nice.


    Finally, Barack Obama admits the surge was a success and gives credit to where it is due... To the Sunnis.

    Barack Obama credited the Sunni Awakening Members and Shia fighters with the success of the surge today in an interview with ABC.
    Marc Ambinder reported:


    Sen. Barack Obama said it was "fair" to notice that he did not anticipate that the surge of U.S. troops into Iraq would be coincident with the so-called Sunni Awakening and the decisions of Shia militias to reduce their footprints, the combination of which led to measurable declines in violence.

    In an interview with ABC's Terry Moran, Obama said that he "did not anticipate, and I think that this is a fair characterization, the convergence of not only the surge but the Sunni awakening in which a whole host of Sunni tribal leaders decided that they had had enough with Al Qaeda, in the Shii’a community the militias standing down to some degrees. So what you had is a combination of political factors inside of Iraq that then came right at the same time as terrific work by our troops. Had those political factors not occurred, I think that my assessment would have been correct."

    And what's amusing is that Obama is acting as if his surge in Afghanistan is somehow a unique and original idea from him.

    Wasn't it John McCain who was calling for more troops in Afghanistan back in 2002?

    and the liberal media is providing cover for the messiah

    According the DNCTV, people do not care if the surge worked

    Shuster: 'Americans Don't Care' If Surge Worked
    NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

    Posted on Tuesday, July 22, 2008 4:26:16 AM by governsleastgovernsbest

    The things people will do for love. Take David Shuster. Please. So eager is the Obama inamorato to cover for his man, he's willing to sacrifice all semblance of reason. Faced with the implacable fact that Obama was wrong in opposing the surge, Shuster has been reduced to claiming that Americans don't care about the surge's success. Shuster made his descent into abject sycophancy on today's Morning Joe. The jumping off point was a clip from an interview of Obama by ABC's Terry Moran

    i believe so and i also believe it was mccain who wanted the surge in iraq first or at least the politician most responsible for getting bush to finally order the surge.

    Like Reid and Pelosi - the messiah gives little or no credit to the US military for the success of the surge

    They are having a very difficult time dealing with the truth in Iraq

    I was lolly gagging this morning and caught a bit of the Obama press conference in Jordan. It was annoying that the reporters' questions were not audible, but what struck me was that the 'great orator' was listless and stuttered, a lot.

    The messiah is being propped up by the hacks in the liberal media. These so called reporters are treating Obama liks he already is President

    and Obama probably thinks he is President as well

    So if he really believes the surge is a bad idea and would do more harm than good, why does he want to have a surge in Afghanistan? Does he want us to fail there?

    You are not allowed to question the messaih. You must accept what he says without question - much like his adoring flock following him on this trip

    I want to see how the voters react to this line of thinking. The sirge is good on one war front - but not on another

    he gave a great deal of credit to the US military. He merely pointed out that we would not have made the strides we have with surge forces alone without the sunni awakening and the shiite ceasefire... internal political events in Iraq that were not contingent upon the surge.

    the wonder boy is one clueless pos..
    "A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself."
    Tullius Cicero (106-43 BC)
