In the tank for Obama? Nooooooooo...

[kabar]

"victory" three times to describe Allied successes during World War II....

LOL.

[TigersEye]

So hyperbole in a convention speech is now scrutinized as hard news? The truth is it is accurate to characterize Obama's Iraq War positions as cut and run in the face of victory. He owns that!

ABC News, coming to a grocery store rack near you soon.

[Filo]

My post to ABC’s site:

Where was the fact check of Obama’s big speech? Perhaps ABC forgot to post it in their quest for fair and balanced reporting? Perhaps Obama offered up no facts to check?

Meanwhile, as usual, the left-wing media has it wrong. Palin was right that Obama never talked about securing victory in Iraq, she was right that he never authored any major legislation (hell, even his minor legislation was BS) and she was completely accurate when she said she put the Alaska jet on eBay.

More of the same from an increasingly panicked left. I can’t wait for November when you f@%tards get your final comeuppance.

[OCC]

I guess it depends on what your definition of “victory” is... I’m pretty sure mine is nothing like Obamas.

[sirchtruth]

All this is about Palin hitting a grand slam last night and there's NOTHING the DBM/Obama can do about it! How absolutely pathetic you must have become to basically be forced to parse words hoping to garner some sympathy.

There will be major blowback if they think they're going to out do Palin with this tripe!

Writes Russel Goldman of the ABC wing of the Obama campaign...

...[Obama said] true success in Iraq -- victory in Iraq -- will not take place in a surrender ceremony where an enemy lays down their arms. . . I want Iraqis to take responsibility for their own future, and to reach the political accommodation ...That's victory. That's success. ... and that's why I will end this war as President.

Hmm.

As I read this, Marxist Obama says, explicitly, that a military victory is not a victory; however that a "political accommodation" IS a victory.

"Political accommodation?" Yes, Marxist Obama would use his vast community organizer experience have the U.S. military leave in non-victory (aka defeat), and HOPE that the bad guys submit to conflict resolution.

(Nervous laughter.)

While a state senator in Illinois, he sponsored two contentious bills

LOL well ok then.

I put it on eBay. I also drive myself to work. FACT: ......When the deal fell through with the sole eBay bidder, the plane was sold offline.

SO? She still had put it on ebay. Duh.

Palin drives herself to work. In July, her Chevy Suburban was rear-ended while driving from Wasilla to her office in downtown Anchorage.

Not sure what the libs point is on this one...probably in the lib world anyone as important as the Messiah should have someone else drive b/c it's not in his pay grade. Or if someone else is driving then the Silky Pony can get more in a lawsuit.

Maybe ABC could ask Obama about the handover of Anbar Province? Used the word "victory" talking about the Allies and WWII? Hillary's healthcare plan? Is this some kind of joke, ABC. This guy has done hundreds of campaign stops over two years and the very dirth of the term "victory" is essentially as Gov. Palin stated.

As to cosponsoring some legislation with his senior Senator, Durbin, how many times has he mentioned that in stump speeches? Yes it's seared in our memory.

I would not be surprised if Obama had no role in crafting it but needless to say (and yes to some of our chagrin) McCain can claim many times over legislation he proposed or was the mainh co-sponsor.

As far as "contentious" legislation on racial profiling and recording of "potential death penalty" cases is nothing of great political risk in liberal Illinois/Chicago.

Without going any further the fact is that I haven't seen ABC slice-and-dice Obama's acceptance speech last year, I mean week. Or ever.

ABC and their Democrat Media Ilk really are beyond non-credible.

[Tanniker Smith]

A week later in Berlin, Germany on July 23, Obama used the word "victory" three times to describe Allied successes during World War II....

I could be wrong but I don't think America is fighting World War II at the present time.

[Free Vulcan]

Palin said wars America IS fighting. WWII is long over, so

FACT: talking about victory in WWII is not relevant to what Palin said.

Anyone also notice that the first date the reporter cites as ‘evidence’ is JULY 15, not even two months ago? On Iraq. How long has the surge been succeeding?

That’s far more damning to Obama than Palin.

[HundredDollars]

This article is satire about how the media has gone from bias to having given up any pretense of intellectual honesty, right?

Without having read the thread, I’m sure many have already taken apart this article so I won’t bother.

[Eagle Eye]

OMG! They've got us against the wall now! OMG!

[Question Liberal Authority]

"...victory in Iraq -- will not take place..."

OK, if you think that proves your point.

Considering that Obama says roughly 40 million words a day and that his incoherent thoughts look they were randomly pulled from a Scrabble bag, it's mathematically possible that you can always find some example somewhere of Obama putting any two words into one sentence. But to suggest that Obama is gung-ho for the US Military to be victorious in Iraq is laughable.

[Question Liberal Authority]

Obama used the word "victory" three times to describe Allied successes during World War II

So 60 years after we win in Iraq, Obama will grudgingly concede that we won?

[crazyhorse691]

Well, thanks to Russell Goldman's investigative reporting I can now sleep better knowing that he will protect me by cataloging the number of times Obama says a word. The only reason this narcissistic piece was published was that it is a Palin hit piece.

[BigBobber]

Why don’t these idiot reporters with nothing to do check every time Obama has said “I passed legislation on...”.

One legislator can’t pass anything, and to claim they do is arrogant in the extreme.

[dalebert]

Whats this? The Obama can lie like a dog about McCain and sic the lieing liberal press on his running mate but No one can say anything about Obamer. Lol! And how dare them say anything about anyones pregnant daughter. How married were Obamas parents?

[norwaypinesavage]

Picking nits comes to mind.
