In his remarks today about the successful completion of Iraq’s second ever national election, President Barack Obama said that there are now less than 100,000 troops in Iraq and he assured the Iraqi people that the United States will fulfill their obligation and have U.S. combat troops out of Iraq by the end of August. Obama said, “By the end of August, our combat mission will end.”
Sarah Palin continues to try to explain away why she had to write her answers to the questions at last month’s Tea Party gathering in Nashville. Palin’s latest attempt occurred at a right to life fundraiser in Ohio last night. She said, “If what was good enough for God, scribbling on the palm of his hand, it’s good enough for me, for us.” Palin has now been reduced to invoking God to explain away her ineptitude.
Mitt Romney continued his 2012 presidential campaign launch disguised as book tour today on Fox News Sunday, where he claimed that Obama’s positions are lending support to international 9/11 truthers like Ahmadinejad. Romney said, “These sorts of voices should not receive any kind of support from the words of the President of United States.” Romney conveniently forgot that the truthers have been around since the days of George W. Bush.
