Hi,

Interesting post. I would love to come back and read more. Oh! By the way did you check www.translationartwork.com , these have a real good concept. Will come back again to read more.

Obama needs to say he will withdraw all the troops and do it

Our politicians are useless, and the rest of the world knows it.

Iraq's view only matters if our troops stay, not if they leave. Obama says he wants to withdraw them, err at least most of them.

Withdraw them all. There is no reason whatsoever for us to leave troops in Iraq at all. None. So stop playing the patsy Obama, and say what you used to say. Get the troops out. The only difference between Obama and McCain anymore on Iraq is a deadline, and a deadline which would mean nothing, since it could always change if needed.

Obama sounds weaker and more useless everyday.

Iraq's Prime Minister is not a fool

It must be obvious to everyone that Obama's intention in meeting with Prime Minister Maliki of Iraq was to be able to get a report that the Prime Minister agreed with him, and not with President Bush.

Of course the Prime Minister needs to be nice to Obama because if Obama is elected he needs to seem cooperative and constructive. Now, he may even think Obama is a moron, but he absolutely cannot let on that he thinks this. If Obama is not elected, everyone will forget anything he said, but he cannot afford to take the chance to cross Obama in any way.

And, besides, the liberal press will mis-report anything to help Obama.
