The KING OF FLIP-FLOPS .... or just a flat out LIAR ?
I would NEVER trust McCAIN as a President!
When interviewed, McCain changes the facts to whatever suits him at that moment!
Do you feel the same about Obama because he has "lied" just as many times. Remember the whole "surge won't work", "surge might be working" , "surge has worked better than we could ever have imagined" BS?

Sorry ... but you are using Obama quotes in three different tenses (Past, Present, Future). That is not flip-flopping. That is providing a different opinion over the course of time, as facts about the subject continue to change.
Maybe if you gave examples of a few quotes where Obama gave opposing opinions for the exact same subject matter at a specific time period, I might be more convinced!
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND WATCHING THAT ABOVE MCCAIN VIDEO !!!

Tell Tavarus D. Setzler's family that the surge worked.

Or perhaps you think his death, and all the others since the surge, are besides the point?

The troop surge in Iraq has been more successful than anyone could have imagined, Barack Obama conceded Thursday in his first-ever interview on FOX News' "The O'Reilly Factor."
Well I don't know how you could ever vote for Obama since he is the one that said that.

Still missing the point. We shouldn't be in Iraq. Just because a tactic to make a horrible situation in Iraq less worse worked, doesn't mean that things are fine and dandy in Iraq now.
Obama's mantras are:
"I'M ASKING YOU TO BELIEVE"
"THE CHANGE WE NEED"
"YES WE CAN"
McCain's mantras are more DIRECT and SPECIFIC to his goals, I notice. They have a clear meaning, not vague and not open to different interpretations. The person will really know what McCain means when the mantra is chanted.

Get it?
Oh, and how are things in Afghanistan by the way?
I agree we need to go back to Obama again for that.
What should we make of Obama's other judgments in foreign affairs? Take Afghanistan, for example. It has been evident for some time that our efforts there are going badly and that cooperation and support from our NATO allies would be helpful. As chairman of the subcommittee on Senate Foreign Relations responsible for NATO and Europe, Obama could have used his lofty position actually to engage the issue and pressure the administration to take some action to improve our chance of success in that conflict against the Taliban and Al Qaeda. Of course, that would have involved holding hearings, questioning administration witnesses, and taking a position and offering alternatives. That is what we expect that from senators in a democracy. It is called oversight.
But, instead, Obama, by his own admission, offers the excuse that he has been too busy running for president to do anything substantive, such as direct his staff to organize a single hearing. "Well, first of all," Obama was forced to confess in the Democratic debate in Ohio on February 26, "I became chairman of this committee at the beginning of this campaign, at the beginning of 2007. So it is true that we haven't had oversight hearings on Afghanistan." To date, his subcommittee has held no policy hearings at all -- none. At the same time that Obama claimed he was too busy campaigning to do anything substantive, racking up one of the worst attendance records in the Senate, Senator Clinton chaired extensive hearings of the Subcommittee on Superfund and Environmental Health and attended many others as a member of the Armed Service Committee.
As a consequence of Obama's dereliction of duty on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, a feckless administration has had absolutely no oversight as it careens from disaster to disaster in Afghanistan, including the central governments loss of control over 70 percent of the country and yet another bumper crop of opium to fuel the efforts of the Taliban and their terrorist allies. Of course, if you don't hold hearings, conduct oversight, make recommendations or sponsor legislation, then you have no record to explain or defend and you are free to take whatever position is convenient when attacking those who actually did address issues. Meanwhile, on the campaign trail, Obama holds forth on Afghanistan, chiding the administration and our allies as though he's a profile in courage and not someone who has abandoned his post in establishing accountability.
It's time to step up and understand your voting for the status quo.
