Interesting read at this link:

Obama thought Saddam haad WMDs

Snips: While Obama has clearly been against the war from the start, it’s interesting what the first ellipsis reveals:

Barack OBama: “He has repeatedly defied UN resolutions, thwarted UN inspection teams, developed chemical and biological weapons, and coveted nuclear capacity. He’s a bad guy.”

So in 2002, despite echoing President Bush’s reasons for going to war with Iraq (and that that Saddam had WMD), Obama still didn’t support going to war against Saddam?

Thanks for the link. Hadn’t heard that (Obama excerpt) before. I can understand why he had kept it quiet.

What brought it to my mind is his recent “revelation” that tax increases hurt an economy and tax cuts help it. I started wondering of other flip-flops that President Obama has made compared to candidate Obama.
