IWA For Sunday 021410

This is completely unbelievable.

Hey folks,

Remember back in 2007, when asked about the Surge Plan for Iraq, our Idiot said this.

"He's dead, flat wrong. The fact of the matter is that there is -- that this -- uh -- this idea of the security gains we made have had no impact on the underlying sectarian dynamic. None. None whatsoever. Can anybody envision a central government made up of Sunni, Shi'a, and Kurds that's going to gain the trust and respect of 27 million Iraqis? There have been some tactical gains, but they have no ultimate bearing at this point on the prospect of there being a political settlement in Iraq that would allow American troops to come home without leaving chaos behind."

Then he said THIS.

"The surge isn't going to work either tactically or strategically. Tactically it isn't going to work because ... our guys go in and secure a neighborhood, but because we don't have enough troops, we have to turn it over to the Iraqis, and they can't hold it or won't hold it.”

Then in 2008, our Idiot released THIS statement.

“As we mark the fifth anniversary of the Iraq War tomorrow, we should ask two questions: Are we any closer than we were a year ago – when the surge began – to ending the war? And what is the Administration’s plan to do so? Those are the questions most Americans want answered, but this Administration cannot or will not answer. The surge has helped bring violence down, but when it ends, we will be right back where we started: with 130,000 troops in Iraq, with the country no nearer to self-sustaining stability and with no end in sight for America.

Treading water in Iraq does not equal progress and we can’t keep doing it without exhausting ourselves. When Congress returns, the Foreign Relations Committee will hold two weeks of hearings to look at where we go next and how we can start to leave Iraq without leaving chaos behind.”

He, together with other Antiwar Kooks, attempted to do any and every thing in their power to get us to LOSE in Iraq. They stood in the way. They stalled funding. They called our Troops names and said that they were committing War atrocities and terrorizing women and children.

Now? Jump ahead to 2010.

"I'm very optimistic about -- about Iraq, and this can be one of the great achievements of this administration. You're going to see 90,000 American troops come marching home by the, uh, end of the summer. You're going to see a stable government in Iraq that is actually moving toward a representative government."

What? Really? Let's forget for a second that the withdraw of 90,000 troops was put in place by BUSH, before Obama and Idiot took office. Let's look at what he said.

"Can anybody envision a central government made up of Sunni, Shi'a, and Kurds that's going to gain the trust and respect of 27 million Iraqis?"

That's exactly what is happening. The Surge WORKED. Iraq is counting down. NOW Biden wants to take credit for it? Sorry Joe, it ain't so. I know you and your ilk LOVE to attempt to rewrite history. Yet, truth is, history nearly ALWAYS proves you on the wrong side. Congratulations Joe Biden, you ARE the Idiot of the week. You most definitely earned THIS accolade.
