McCain campaign hammers Obama on Iraq
Just as Democrat Barack Obama prepares for a trip to Iraq, the John McCain campaign unleashed nearly eight minute video on YouTube that documents Obama’s shifting positions on the war.
While Obama’s short tenure in the U.S. Senate makes it more difficult to mine for inconsistent votes and stances, the McCain researchers have scoured video archives to produce “The Obama Iraq Documentary: Whatever the Politics Demand.”
The Obama campaign responded with its own attack on McCain’s Iraq policies.
“All John McCain has ever looked for in Iraq are reasons to stay there indefinitely. He has stubbornly championed a strategy of fighting an unnecessary war in Iraq regardless of the shifting facts offered to justify it, regardless of the levels of violence and political progress in the country, and regardless of the gathering strength of the Taliban and Al Qaeda in Afghanistan. And now, as he advocates a policy of staying in Iraq indefinitely, it is clear that he is going to continue to adhere to George Bush’s ideological agenda even as every other critical national security challenge is neglected, and our troops continue to fight tour after tour of duty and our taxpayers spend $10 billion a month in Iraq,” said Obama campaign spokesman Hari Sevugan.
