Obama Scrubs website of surge criticism
Unbelievable but true. After denigrating the surge for more than a year, according to the New York Daily News Obama's minions have been busy scrubbing his website of any criticism the candidate made of the surge.
"The surge is not working," Obama's old plan stated, citing a lack of Iraqi political cooperation but crediting Sunni sheiks - not U.S. military muscle - for quelling violence in Anbar Province.The News reported Sunday that insurgent attacks have fallen to the fewest since March 2004.Obama's campaign posted a new Iraq plan Sunday night, which cites an "improved security situation" paid for with the blood of U.S. troops since the surge began in February 2007.It praises G.I.s' "hard work, improved counterinsurgency tactics and enormous sacrifice."Campaign aide Wendy Morigi said Obama is "not softening his criticism of the surge. We regularly update the Web site to reflect changes in current events."
And if you believe that, I have a bridge over the Chicago River I can sell you.
