More campaign quotes, none of which state total withdrawal:
"Obama will immediately begin to remove our troops from Iraq. He will remove one to two combat brigades each month, and have all of our combat brigades out of Iraq within 16 months. Obama will make it clear that we will not build any permanent bases in Iraq. He will keep some troops in Iraq to protect our embassy and diplomats; if al Qaeda attempts to build a base within Iraq, he will keep troops in Iraq or elsewhere in the region to carry out targeted strikes on al Qaeda."
This is MAY, Obama has been in office for four months, have ANY troops been removed let alone "one to two combat brigades each month"?

"Obama, took a hard look at the information and discovered that it would be ilresponsible to pull the troops out at this time"..
More justification for ilresponsible campaign promises..
Ah yes, get the rope, let's find people guilty for things yet to come

funny, you had no problem when this was done to Republicans..
At least I have evidence from liberals, like trying to spin Obama and him sending MORE troops into Afghanistan, and liberals right here on this thread who cant name ONE brigade that has come out of Iraq..
Can you name the 1-2 brigades a month to leave Iraq? If not, your doing exactly what I said
More justification for ilresponsible campaign promises..
Please! EXAMPLES of where I EVER called "guilty Republican" before their misdeeds ?
Until you supply that I'll continue to believe you're blowing baseless smoke.
You keep trying to deflect from the thread, from the fact that Obama has not kept his word on the issue, and it doesnt change the facts..
I AGAIN ask, WHAT brigades have left Iraq? Again, if you cant name them, my argument stands, if you list 4+ of them, I'll admit I was wrong..
After all, if my statement was true, because the original news story is also true, then your "guilty of things to come" argument is meaningless because the "guilty of things to come" is taking place right here in this thread..
He promised those who support him everything under the sun....I personally do not have the energy or interest to go through and find his broken promises(although detention without trial comes to mind).
Has he been moving towards holding trials for detainees?
What's Dickey-bird Cheney been crying about recently?

If you do not vote for Obama,who will you vote for,the Repub candidate?
I've voted for Republican presidents on several occasions. I've voted for one Democratic president; Obama. I'll more than likely vote for him in 2012, too. He's a good man and he's right for the job.
I don't have to be in total agreement with his every move to think he's doing the right thing. If I was right about everything, then I should be in the White Hosue calling the shots. We can all be thankful that I'm not.
Radical rightwingers think in terms of lockstep. Maybe that's the limit of their understanding?

NO FACTS from the NeoConfused when requested, THERE's a big surprise
And HERE's a clue: The thread's about the army being prepared, it has NOTHING to do with Obama.

And I say again, the thread's about the army stating preparedness, NOT Obama. YOU are the one deflecting from the thread! YOUR argument stands on a pile of BS.

WHAT guilt? The army being prepared for various possibilities? Typical NeoConfused crap, attempting to create issues where none exist.

So you cant name ONE brigade that has been pulled out of Iraq? Why did you bother responding..
p.s. the thread is about Obama, did you look at the title of the thread? He is the leader of the army.. That is HIS job, not to manage GM

As is the norm, YOU divert from the thread. I responsed because YOU accused me of declaring Republican guilt prior to their misdeeds, an accusation you refuse to support with FACTS.

Did YOU look at the title and notice the question mark? I think the NeoConfuseds are so delusional they don't even know WHAT they're whining about.
The armed forces are no doubt prepared to launch a nuclear attack if necessary, I suppose you'll soon be whining Obama didn't tell us that was in the works
