Bush got us in there. We're there. We could have just left
(cut-and-run, some people would say) when Obama took office, but how
smart would that be?

You don't really have a point, do you?
But he indicated to his followers that he would get out... close Gitmo,
have open meetings, reach over the isle... pffffttttt.. The fact is, he
said he was gonna' do it. Half of the country admitted they knew he
wouldn't, the rest just missed the boat...

I didn't know his time was up.


The first two (he would get out [Iraq and Afghanistan] and close Gitmo)
were promised in the first hundred days, the second two [have open
meetings, reach over the isle] were promised during his whole
administration... His time was up on the first two a few months back,
the second, when he started having secret meetings and censoring
information about his Czars and nominees... Fact is, it was bull****,
designed to get him elected. He never meant it, just said it... Hey,
could JPS be Oba.... uh, forget it...

Things change when you're handed what Bush handed him.
