Does the left feeled abused
Obama says that his position on Iraq has not changed, the people who thought that he said that he was going to end the war sooner rather then later, just didn't understand his nuanced position on Iraq. Here is an interesting stat.The Republicans were in charge for approximately 44 months from the start of the war until the Democrats took over Congress in 2006. The Democrats screamed that they would end the war, stop the killing, and stop spending billions on Iraq firehouses and build American firehouses instead.Since they were elected to power some 24 months ago, the Democrat controlled congress has not kept their promise and if you add Obama’s 16 month schedule for troop withdrawal, it will be approximately 40 months before the withdrawal has been completed, if he doesn’t flip flop for a longer stay.It's possible and probable that US forces will be in Iraq longer under a Democrat President and Congress, then they were under the Republicans.
If you think that his position changes are over, then slap yourself and wake up. He will do whatever is necessary in order to win. He is a beltway politcian. He fed you what he calculated that you wanted to hear to get your support, and you bought it hook, line, and lewinsky.
Repeat after me, I am a lefty and I bought his spiel as a change candidate. I am a dumba##.

Duped is probably a better word for it.

Sometimes you go to bed with someone you think is a virgin, and you wake up with a whore. Such is life...

Hey Sachem
Would you have supported Obama if he had said that, if elected, he will continue to have American troops in Iraq, even if the Democrat controlled congress refused to fund the war?

I would support arming every member of Congress and sending them into Sadr city to flush out the islamofascist insurgents... without air support. Does that count?

Well, I'll be honest, I've never considered that. But my quick answer would be, yes.
