Obama couldn’t find Iraq on the map.
Here’s the ZINGER:

“What’s missing in our debate,” Mr. Obama said yesterday, “is a discussion of the strategic consequences of Iraq.” Indeed: The message that the Democrat sends is that he is ultimately indifferent to the war’s outcome — that Iraq “distracts us from every threat we face” and thus must be speedily evacuated regardless of the consequences. That’s an irrational and ahistorical way to view a country at the strategic center of the Middle East, with some of the world’s largest oil reserves. Whether or not the war was a mistake, Iraq’s future is a vital U.S. security interest. If he is elected president, Mr. Obama sooner or later will have to tailor his Iraq strategy to that reality.

Barack Obama looks and acts like a 12 year old, especially on foreign policy.
"dramatic changes"?
What are these "dramatic changes", Mr. WashPost?
We never hear about them...
< /sarcasm >
He saw his poll numbers dropping and thought it was about his “iraq plan.” It wasn’t. It was about folks getting to know how ill-prepared he is to be in charge of of anything....he has no executive experience at all, and little of any kind of significant experience.
They are fearful of losing that plant to a casual jihad.
I would like for a reporter to ask Hussein.....” Senator, you have often mentioned bringing home brigades. For those of us not familiar with Army lingo, how many soldiers are in a brigade? What rank of officer is a brigade commander?”
The Washington Post? Has hell frozen over?
Obama won’t debate and won’t go on shows where he might be shown to be anything more than an empty suit.
He’s never had a major opponent, spent hardly any time in congress, and from what I can see has been propped up like a doll and marketed by the democrat liberal Chicago machine all his life. He’s voted “present” for any number of things. When questionaires have been found with his handwriting showing how he really feels, he’s tried to lie them away.
He’s lived most of his life filling the requirements for a liberal black constituency.
Now suddenly he’s found his positions seem to be looked at as “radical” for a presidential candidate, and the only reason he’s gotten the far is a lapdog press, panting and whining and covering for their extreme candidate. He’s spinning desperately trying to cover, and the MSM is doing their best to help him.
But this last flip, to not immediately, irrationally withdraw from the war, was too much for his moonloony netroots. He’s had to backtrack. He delivered the most nonsensical, flowery speech yesterday, trying to placate them.
The lib media is trying their best to cover for him. But even the WaPo is finding it hard.
The thought of Gen. Petraeus having to deal with this fool makes me grind my teeth. A man with real intellect, real courage and genuine dedication to his country will have to be polite rather than smacking him in the chops.
We never left Germany or Japan, and that turned out pretty well.
I think even the limp-wrists at WaPo are beginning to realize that Obama is best qualified as a City Councilman, not a Senator, let alone a Presidential Candidate.
