So what is Obama's position on Iraq?

Add a Comment

July 18, 8:22 AM

by Dan Spencer, Right Side Politics Examiner

The Short answer is "Whatever the Politics Demand."

Watch the following video documentary released by the McCain's presidential campaign entitled "The Obama Iraq Documentary: Whatever the Politics Demand." The documentary examines Obama's multitude of inconsistent statements on Iraq and presents a timeline of Obama's political positioning on Iraq, including Obama's incorrect judgment that the surge would fail.

Obama sounds as consistent as John Kerry.
