Last year's headlines 08/18/2010:

"The last U.S. combat troops crossed the border into Kuwait on Thursday morning,..."

"The final convoy of the Army’s 4th Stryker Brigade Combat Team, based at Fort Lewis, Wash., began entering Kuwait about 1:30 a.m. (6:30 p.m. Wednesday ET), carrying the last of the 14,000 U.S. combat forces in Iraq, said NBC’s Richard Engel, who has been traveling with the brigade as it moved out this week".

Today's headlines 12/15/2011: "U.S. War in Iraq Declared Officially Over"

 

"Even after the last two bases are closed and the final American combat troops withdraw from Iraq by Dec. 31, under rules of an agreement with the government in Baghdad,..."

So; does everyone remember the lying nobama, the US president from kenya, on tv last year announcing to the world that the last combat troops had left Iraq? Why are combat troops leaving in Dec 2011 if they had all left in Aug 2010?

 

nobama's "dumb war", which he labeled and opposed as a senator is supposed to be over now. All the US troop death count tickers will continue on all the websites, though. Kind of odd that the liar went out on that limb to call the war "over"!

If this had been Bush that had decleared the war over and the combat troops out over a year ago, what do you think the response would have been from NY Times, CNN, MSNBC, Newsweek, and all the other mainstream media outlets?

I especially got all warm and fuzzy when nobama had to admit on tv that the troop surge that he had opposed, had actually worked. That right there showed America what a non-wizard he was in war matters. A greatly-failed military leader. What is sad though is that more combat troops from designated combat units will still be dying in Iraq; even after these two big lies to the world.

And here we go again....this lie keeps perpetuating itself, huh mallcontent?

 

Last American Troops Leave Iraq Marking End of War

Published December 18, 2011

| Associated Press


The last U.S. soldiers rolled out of Iraq across the border into neighboring Kuwait at daybreak Sunday,...." (Didn't we see this headline in August 2010?)

"Obama stopped short of calling the U.S. effort in Iraq a victory in an interview taped Thursday with ABC News' Barbara Walters." 

So, the liar admits he is a failure with military leadership. Well, if he was forced to admit on tv that the Bush troop surge worked beyonds his dreams, how does he think pulling the troops out of Iraq and admitting loss looks?
