Obama went on to say that if he became our President he planned to have a civil rights police force policing the streets. This isn’t a joke, I just happened to be running through my channels a few months ago and saw this interview.
That’s just plain made up.
I will be honest I still think we have a long way to go in that country, but I do believe we are moving in the right direction.
So you think that the Iraqis are taking responsibility for their country and making significant progress in the process of running and securing it by themselves? Or do you have some other “right direction” in mind?
We need to get off the Iraq wagon and start focusing on what directly affects our country like North Korea and Iran and of course this global economic meltdown that we face. I haven’t heard much about either country as of late because it seems as though Obama and Hilary want to focus on the past and not the future.
I wouldn’t call focusing on Iraq focusing on the past. I’d call it focusing on the present and the future. Americans are dying in Iraq and a lot of attention should therefore be paid to Iraq.
Don’t vote for Obama because you think he is a great speaker or he is going to change the country because it won’t happen. Vote for Obama if you really feel like he motives are there. I believe Obama is a talented speaker and extremely savy salesman, but he doesn’t belong in the Oval Office IMHO.
Well, except for the part about whehter he belongs in the Oval Office and whether he’s going to change things, I agree with you.
