In fact, it brings up a second point: what is your opinion on the recent news about bringing home the troops from Iraq? Was this noble and correct? Is it just timing? Is it sleazy to push and push to get them to stay there, and then trumpet that Obama's bringing them home only because Iraq decided to not accept them any more? What do you think? Hope to hear back from you.LMEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18429716019519498131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1042042552998680556.post-8564018612324350582011-11-30T19:25:05.222-08:002011-11-30T19:25:05.222-08:00The one that bothers me most is not bringing our t...The one that bothers me most is not bringing our troops home when he said he was going to.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1042042552998680556.post-27665689399909733562011-11-28T08:05:49.853-08:002011-11-28T08:05:49.853-08:00Dara - WOW!

That started a whole new round of conspiracy theories... a planned distraction from his real agenda... to destroy our American way of life.<br /><br />Obama rode in on a vague promise of 'hope and change'. Many people heard that and never asked the very simple questions...Hope for what? Change - to what?<br /><br />Obama tipped his hand in the first two years with total control of the WH and Congress... thank God for the Tea Party and the elections of 2010 or I fear we'd be MUCH farther along the Socialist trail by now.<br /><br />He promised a 'civilian army' - we did get that in the form of the OWS 'protesters'... how's that workin' out?<br /><br />We need to do as Pelosi (ha, ha) promised - and failed to do... 'drain the swamp' in DC and get a handle on our out of control Government. <br /><br />We need to do it in 2012/14!Darahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10612923804586600664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1042042552998680556.post-86156491996207333162011-11-28T07:53:37.813-08:002011-11-28T07:53:37.813-08:00Unemployment.
