Comments on: Surge Worked? Why the Same Amount Left Behind? http://coonsey.wordpress.com/2008/07/16/surge-worked-why-the-same-amount-left-behind/ Let's talk politics - Mine and Maybe Yours Fri, 13 Nov 2009 01:56:51 +0000 http://wordpress.com/ hourly 1 By: Canker http://coonsey.wordpress.com/2008/07/16/surge-worked-why-the-same-amount-left-behind/#comment-13 Canker Sun, 20 Jul 2008 16:08:45 +0000 http://coonsey.wordpress.com/?p=24#comment-13 Well of course the GOP are claiming their WORDING is different compared to Obama's ("time horizon" vs "withdraw timeline", "It's foolish to say you'll bomb in Pakistan (an allie)" and "Bush admin just announced they've shot missiles into Pakistan in hopes of killing a possible high value target..." vs "OBAMA -If Pakistan does not act and we know of a high value target, yes we will act"....etc..). Obama also started talking about Afghanistan almost 2 years ago, needing more troops -- now McCain and the GOP are doing it. Even having the general mention that Al qaeda MAY be moving to Afghanistan now. Now Maliki and the Iraqi's also want a timeline. Experience is great but a little COMMON SENSE goes a long way. Well of course the GOP are claiming their WORDING is different compared to Obama’s (“time horizon” vs “withdraw timeline”, “It’s foolish to say you’ll bomb in Pakistan (an allie)” and “Bush admin just announced they’ve shot missiles into Pakistan in hopes of killing a possible high value target…” vs “OBAMA -If Pakistan does not act and we know of a high value target, yes we will act”….etc..).

LOL! Where are those critics that said sitting down and talking to your enemies was lunacy as well as naive, at now? I will admit that I was sort of lukewarm toward Obama for a while, but he's starting to look better by the day.
