He was right on the issue from day one and Clinton and McCain were proved wrong. It seems pretty clear that there are no risks to Obama on discussing Iraq, as it demonstrates his superior judgment (and I say that as someone who initially supported the war). </description></item><item><title>Iraq politics</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/03/18/778108.aspx#778228</link><pubDate>Tue, 18 Mar 2008 13:36:12 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:778228</guid><dc:creator>juan,ft lauderdale,fl</dc:creator><description>Obama along with maybe 10-15% population was against this war from day 1 because GOP with the exception of Ron Paul had the guts to understand history, the ongoing cold war mentality we still live in, and how the GOP used 911 for their own political agenda AND partisan politics. We now all have to face the consequences and hubris of this administration. </description></item><item><title>Iraq politics</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/03/18/778108.aspx#778275</link><pubDate>Tue, 18 Mar 2008 13:46:18 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:778275</guid><dc:creator>Michael,FL</dc:creator><description>Quit taking McCain's words out of context.

Jonesboro IN</dc:creator><description>Iraq has never faded from my consciousness, I have never supported the war, and never will, as it has never been worth one drop of American blood, much less the 12 billion dollars a month it is costing AMERICAN taxpayers, while the useless so called &amp;quot;government&amp;quot; of Iraq sit around with their thumbs up their ass. Clintons vote was wrong, but at least she realizes it now, and has a plan. Mccain has no plan-other than the old &amp;quot;stay the course&amp;quot; crap. Our valiant millitary and our economy simply can NOT sustain this miserable blunder!</description></item></channel></rss>
