The author forgets to point out that most of those on Obama’s short list for VP voted in favor of invading Iraq.
However, if you ask a liberal, they deny reality and say Bush invaded without authorization.

Is Obama an idiot? I don't think so, really.

Try as they may, Dems just can't suppress their “hate America” views - and Obama is certainly no exception. This is a gaffe of huge proportions but will be swamped by the media interest in how many houses McCain owns. A sad state of affairs for a corrupt political party and their corrupt supporters in the MSM.
To: Renfield
Blame America crowd. Iraq has years to comply with the UN. If he wants to compare the US to Russia more power to him , I think he has won that vote but middle America may not have the same view.

However, if you ask a liberal, they deny reality and say Bush invaded without authorization.Although it went pretty much unnoticed, Obama stated in his Sadlleback session that one of the reasons that he was against the invasion of Iraq was because he was unconvinced that Saddam had WMDs. It was clear Monday morning quarterbacking by Obama that the MSM just let pass without comment.
To: Renfield
Sounds like Obama forgot that Iraq invaded Kuwait and signed a "conditional treaty" which was continuously violated, gassed his own people, was in the WMD business and provided harbor for the dude that bombed the NY Tower in 1993.
When we went into Afghanistan, Iraq would have become one of the natural bases for alqueda. The idea that Saddam and Osama wouldn't deal is obscure.

Let’s face it...Obama is not a smart person. When has he ever demonstrated his intelligence? As editor of Harvard Law Review, he never wrote an article. With a Harvard Law degree, he first worked for a small law firm representing slum lord Tony Rezko, then became a community organizer (whatever that is). When he starts talking, it is like Mr Magoo driving a car...you never know where he is going to wind up. Has he shown a mental command of any subject?

for invading another countrys sovereign territory
Barry, Iraq was hardly sovereign territory. Saddam had no authority over 2/3s of Iraq's airspace.

Is Obama an idiot? Does Rose Kennedy own a black dress?
He's not just an idiot, he's Obamidiot. Somehow, I thought the Antichrist would be a little smarter.

Did Obama get accepted at Harvard on an an affirmative action ‘scholarship’? Anyone, anyone?

Obama was first Black President of the Harvard Law Review. Susan Estrich was the first woman. Just connecting those DEM dots...

By November, I suspect that most voters will have heard enough to know that Barack Obama is unqualified to be a middle-manager in a well-run company, let alone President of the United States. Ouch. True.

Weve got to send a clear message to Russia and unify our allies, Obama told a crowd of supporters in Virginia. They cant charge into other countries. Of course it helps if we are leading by example on that point.Can Burp get any stupider!!?? I thought the "paygrade" comment was the epitome of stupidity for a presidential wannabee, but in this statement he neutralizes his own comment before someone else can beat him to it!!!
This is the equivalent of saying that Hillary could use a new wardrobe, and I can dress better, myself!!!
"It is better to keep one's own counsel and be thought a fool, that to open one's mouth and remove all doubt!! Burp, take the hint!!

Gaffe? Not according to his supporters and his disciples in the media. Well, maybe a little bit. Left wing blogs are 100 % in support of Russias invasion of Georgia, and are singing the praises of Putin.
To: Renfield
I’m willing to bet that Obama believes that we were wrong at D-Day as well.
To: InterceptPoint
...he was unconvinced that Saddam had WMDs.Idiot.
Of course Saddam had WMDs.
He proved he had them.
He used them.
The only question can be "Where did he hide them?".
