This week mark's Obama's 16th month in office and despite his solemn pledge, we STILL have combat troops in Iraq!
Question: Is there ONE campaign promise Obama has kept? One of the central pillars of his presidential campaign was a solemn vow to end the war in Iraq and bring the troops home. Obama may have hedged all over the place on exactly how he would make the withdrawal, but all during the campaign he repeatedly insisted he would bring U.S. combat troops home within 16 months after taking office.
Well, this week marked Obama's 16th month in office and U.S. combat troops are STILL in Iraq!
Will the lefties who spit rhetorical poison at President Bush for eight years "Bush lied us into war," now turn on the man who vowed he would end that war by now? Or, will these same lefties give Obama a pass and reveal once again that they really don't stand on moral principles, only a pursuit of political power?

Don’t worry, the MSM will hold him responsible and make sure that he keeps his promise.
That’s their job and they wouldn’t neglect their duty.
Please, they are safer in Iraq than they would be in Chicago. At least in Iraq they have weapons to defend themselves.
Obama is following the Bush schedule. And this distinction about combat troops versus other troops is more eyewash. We will still have more than 50,000 troops in Iraq when Obama completes his first term.
I cannot overestimate the power of a massive SEIU/ACORN blitz for 2012, but even with those arrows in his quiver, Zero's looking more and more like a one-termer.
obozo lied? noooooo....... he’s nothing but a freaking lie! hurry 2012 ><>
