Obama: Iran’s Dictator or US CentCom General?
As John McCain said yesterday, “Why is it that Senator Obama wants to sit down with the President of Iran, but hasn’t yet sat down with General Petraeus — the leader of our troops in Iraq?”
Good question. Let’s help encourage Senator Obama and have him visit our troops in Iraq (and Afghanistan) as well as meet with General Petraeus. Surely Obama wants to have all of the facts, since he regularly suggests President Bush only heard what he wanted to hear.
Here’s some encouragement, Barry…
(I’m not sure the counter is working here…. so I refer you to the top of the right sidebar!)
What IS Obama afraid of?

The truth. He doesn’t want to see evidence that he’s lying and has been mislead by the liberal media. He knows damn well that it won’t be a pretty picture (to him).

He’s too self-absorbed and arrogant to be afraid of anything. Sort of like Hitler was. And Jim Jones.

Obama’s whole campaign is based on his magic judgment in his, “Dumb War,†speech in 2002. But does that judgment make the grade?

#3 LT - Ah yes… The very 2002 speech, I believe, where Obama told this shaggy-dog story:
In the more recent controversy, Obama said it was his “uncle”, who had “helped liberate” Auschwitz. Never mind that, according to blogger research, it was neither his uncle nor his grandfather but his great-uncle; that the fellow apparently enlisted six months after Pearl Harbor (not the day after); and that, most fantastically, Auschwitz and Treblinka were both liberated by Soviet troops, being in Poland.

B. Hussein Obama - the gaffe machine that just keeps on giving. He’s a one-man House of Waffles.
He’ll end up making both Kerry and Dukakis look like straight shooters.
Sit back and enjoy the popcorn!

The pressure is getting to him, he now says that he is “considering” going this summer. I love this part:
Oh this is too funny! Thanks for the chuckles, Barry!
Bloody amateur.
Btw love the new graphic, Bruce!

If you follow the link that LifeTrek offered, it turns out that Obama also said this in 2002:
And this:
Right of the Star touches on this point: Obama clearly knew that, if Iraq is to have a positive outcome, we can’t withdraw U.S. troops precipitously. Yet he wants to. What’s that about? Is he going against his own speech / judgment? Or is he happy to accept failure in Iraq?

Barry is certain that all his predecessors and competitors are mere bumblers and that a steady hand on the tiller is all that is needed. It is doubtful in the extreme that he is what his bio reveals him to be if he took this stuff seriously; a radical black separatist with Marxist theology as the guiding principle. No, all of that and all of us in flyover, we bitter gunslinging fundies are but the sea on which Obama sails. He will do in Iraq whatever he thinks best. Samantha Powers informed us that he will be bound by nothing so silly as a policy. Not only on Iraq but on trade, we know he boldy declares looney policies he has no intention of implementing. Could his healthcare policy also be intentionally fraudulent? The only vital thing is that he gain office. Anything that furthers this is God’s Work (anyone else note an absence of outrage at Barry’s religiousity?), anything that hinders this is at best a distraction and at worst, you know, racism or more likely, race-obsessed insanity.
McCain’s tack is a good one. Petreus already went through that crucible of stupidity and bad faith that was his grilling in Congress. Barry asked many questions and stated that political progress was the only benchmark we may properly consider. Only now we won’t consider it or even look at it. For McCain it would be political incompetence not to make hay on this. Barry is in a box. He has talked himself into many boxes; none yet that he could not talk his way out of, unless this is it. And the campaing has really not yet begun. I notice no one asked Hillary what she thought about all this.

Go this Summer? ….What a tool, it’s 120-degrees in Baghdad in Summer. A smart strategist would go while it’s still moderate-temps to avoid pics of the candidate in sweat-soaked shirts under the body-armor.
Unless he wants to play-the-martyr-card to show the “inhumane conditions our troops are laboring under”. But I just don’t think he’s THAT smart either.

#9 - I half expect B. Hussein Obama to go out to greet the troops and complain about the rising cost of argula at Whole Foods. Then he’ll ask for Evian with a twist.
You’re right, he’s a tool.
