Transcript of video:
"I'll tell you my impression. We really in this last election, when I say we...the Democrats, I think pushed it as far as we can to the end of the fleet, didn't say it, but we implied it. That if we won the Congressional elections, we could stop the war. Now anybody was a good student of Government would know that wasn't true. But you know, the temptation to want to win back the Congress, we sort of stretched the facts...and people ate it up."

No, let's see how many people will believe the lie that Obama is going to end the war...

Yeah. Democrats lying doesn't surprise me, but admitting it (on camera, no less) does surprise me.

Many-and they'll be more than happy to blame their foreseeable disappointment on something else, I'm sure.
When Obama fails to end the Iraq war and tries to make it into a victory, though, will war supporters celebrate his wisdom?

I've long suspected that the war cannot be won while a Republican is President. Victory in this particular war won't come from a surrender treaty, it'll require a general public perception (both ours and theirs) that we're the victors. Public perception is controlled quite heavily by the media. The media will never give a Republican, much less Bushitler himself, credit for a victory. They'll be eager to give one of their own pet Democrats credit for a victory, though.
Time will tell.

You speak as if there is some doubt.

But surely you are shocked to hear one of them admit it?
does this make the dems better than the reps because they at least admit it?
i'm tired of both bowls of crap, thank you very much.
