Searching in Vain for the Obama Magic

It doesn't make any difference what he said, we want him to end Bush's War on Afghanistan.

Unless he does, he will not get a second term.

Let me get this straight...

You don't care what Obama said, you just want him to end the war in Afghanistan. Did you think he lied on the campaign trail? Why would you think he would end the war when he stated the exact opposite on the campaign trail? The fact that you even thought for a second that he would do what you wanted shows that you either felt he lied on the trail, or you were ignorant in your voting choice.

No it doesn't.

He talked about a plan which reflected what he knew about Bush's War. As he did about so many other things, Bush probably lied about Afghanistan. It would have been perfectly acceptable for Obama to change his plan when he had access to the truth.

Hate to break the bads news to you Joe

Like the economy - this is now Obama's war

The blame Bush BS is no longer working. Dems will actually have to govern and fix things now

Well, I guess Bush told the truth then - because Obama's stance on Afghanistan remains the same now as it did when he was on the trail.

I'm still cracking up at the fact that you claim to have voted for him to end the war in Afghanistan, when he clearly stated he supported the war there, it was the right war, and that he would concentrate his efforts there.

Seriously, did you even listen to what he stated all last year, or did you just blindly vote for him? I'm trying to reconcile how you could have possibly imagined he would have ended the war when he always spoke pretty much the opposite.

Either way, I don't care, I'm just elated to be reading about more and more Dem supporters every day who are getting tired of not getting what they expected with Obama!

Like Virgil - Joe only cares who has that "D" at the end of their name when he votes

If they lie - hell he blames Republicans and gives the Dem a pass
