Barack Obama purges Web site critique of surge in Iraq
Barack Obama purges Web site critique of surge in Iraq

Barack Obama's campaign scrubbed his presidential Web site over the weekend to remove criticism of the U.S. troop "surge" in Iraq, the Daily News has learned.

The presumed Democratic nominee replaced his Iraq issue Web page, which had described the surge as a "problem" that had barely reduced violence.

"The surge is not working," Obama's old plan stated, citing a lack of Iraqi political cooperation but crediting Sunni sheiks - not U.S. military muscle - for quelling violence in Anbar Province.

Does Barack Hussein Obama think he can get away with just changing his website everyday...

Well, his campaign motto is "Change" isn't it?

Big Brother Is Watching. Obama will start book burnings and take over the media with the fairness doctrine. Wow I thought that book was just fiction when I read it several years ago.

Both are going to change their websites several times more each.

The Fairness doctrine is even scarier than Obama. You know somehow the progressive radio stations in NYC wont be required to play Rush.

Obama hasn't flipflopped on the surge. That would have taken courage to admit he was wrong. Instead he is hoping that people won't notice that he was on the wrong side of the issue. I see now that he is advocating a surge in Afghanistan. Maybe he's learned something.

Obama has not learned anything new. He loves change. He can't stand by with one choice. He changes based on public opinion.

Now, he believes in wearing an American Flag pin.

Which Barack Hussein Obama is coming to America if he gets elected?
