I voted that he will follow the advice of his advisor, but that's misleading (as usual for an AD thread) because it's Obama's policy, not his advisor's.

However a politician is judged by the policy he enacts.

There's no disarray. This is exactly what Obama's been saying for years. He intends to get our troops out of Iraq as carefully as they were careless going in.
This is NOT what Obama promises in his web site or his campaign. Obama said he would keep a small force in Iraq. Now this "small force" it's being defined as 60,000 strong in Iraq till 2010. Sounds a bit deceptive to me.

If you think that this is what Obama initially promised, then you are a little Obama robot believing everything he says, and going along with whatever excuses he makes for breaking his promise.

Obama is clear on his policy according to his web site. Now this new information is contrary to what he has promised his supporters. And what happens when Obama changes his mind on the troop levels? He promised to get the troops out within 16 months of his taking office. Now his people want to keep 60,000 in till 2010. That means that we will realistically be there till 2012, and maybe that's the plan for that election year.

Given the information above, you seem to have a hint of hypocrisy in your game.

Show us where he said he would pull the troops out immediately.

You're having a very hard time understanding a complicated issue.

It's sad.

Blatant partisans have little time for nuance.
