What he promised over and over again while campaigning was that he would remove the troops on the day he was elected.
Not only is this ignored still, but at the time, no one in the lamestream had the thought to inquire how he planned to do so when he would have no power as president-elect.
I know, I know, the double-standard, but it still makes me livid-crazy, the stuff they let the left get away with while conservatives would be lambasted with that kind of campaign rhetoric.
