The Sen. Barack H. Obama will not go down as a "flip-flopper" on his opposition to the "surge" strategy in Iraq. At least, that is his stance in an ABC report during his big adventure to the Middle East. By the way, I would not consider the Sen. Barack H. Obama a "flip-flopper" for recognizing his error in judgment and acknowledging that the strategy he opposed - a strategy that the Democrat party actually called for at the beginning of military intervention in Iraq - has been the correct strategy to pursue.
Sure, there are politics and diplomacy facets during war, but do they supersede reasonable or sound military tactics and strategies? This potential commander-in-chief of the American Armed Forces seems to think so.

Nothing like sticking to your guns. Unfortunately, Big Media still gets to spin him out of this as they note that with Iraq situation in hand, we should be able to draw down - just like the Sen. Barack H. Obama has promised we would.
