Hussein: I Am The Surrender King, Hillary Pretender To Throne
He also mocks McCain “to laughter and applause”, stating McCain doesn’t know the differnence between Sunni and Shiite and where Al Qaeda comes from…he also reiterated that no other candidate is as gifted in the area of good judgement as he is…
FAYETTEVILLE, N.C. (AP) - Barack Obama suggested Wednesday that Hillary Rodham Clinton could not be trusted to end the Iraq war because she only started opposing it when she began her bid for president.
In a speech not far from North Carolina’s Fort Bragg military base, the Democratic presidential hopeful told military families and local officials that the war has emboldened al-Qaida, the Taliban, Iran and North Korea.
“Ask yourself,” Obama told the crowd, “Who do you trust to end a war: someone who opposed the war from the beginning, or someone who started opposing it when they started preparing a run for president?”
Obama used the five-year anniversary of the Iraq invasion to again cast himself as the only true anti-war candidate, one who openly opposed the invasion as a state lawmaker. He renewed criticism of Clinton for voting to authorize the use of force against Iraq.
Clinton campaign spokesman Phil Singer responded: “The reality is that Senator Obama took practically no action to end the war until he started his White House run while Senator Clinton has been a consistent critic of Iraq for many years.”
In the days before she won primaries in Texas and Ohio, Clinton argued that she was better prepared to be commander in chief and broadcast a television ad that asked who could handle a middle-of-the-night crisis. Obama countered that Clinton had bungled her crisis moment when she voted to authorize military force to oust Saddam Hussein.
Obama alluded to that ad in his speech.
“What we need in our next commander in chief is not a stubborn refusal to acknowledge reality or empty rhetoric about 3 a.m. phone calls,” he said. “What we need is a pragmatic strategy that focuses on fighting our real enemies, rebuilding alliances and renewing our engagement with the world’s people.”
He said Clinton and McCain talk tough on national security yet make decisions that leave the country less secure.
“This is why the judgment that matters most on Iraq—and on any decision to deploy military force—is the judgment made first,” Obama said.
I can’t wait for the general election…
March 19th, 2008 at 4:25 pmI wonder…..Who are these “real enemies” he’s referring to.

March 19th, 2008 at 5:21 pmThe ancient Egyptians managed to get themselves overrun by the Nubians from the south. Similar to the swarm coming over our southern border today. The Egyptians originally thought they could “chat” with those that live in present day Sudan. I’m pretty sure it was Tut’s father that finally ran the Nubians off. BO you are no Tut. And you’re not a descendent of Nubian royalty. All of those live here in Philadelphia.

Obviously, the type of people who post here, fly American flags from their porch, and go to pro-troop rallies. Remember Ruby Ridge? I expect repeats on a weekly basis if he wins. At least Clinton learned to keep Reno on a leash after that and Waco. BO probably isn’t capable of learning that kind of lesson.
