Obama Claims Credit for Iraq Win - Victory in a war that he and his party wanted to lose
RUSH: Yesterday we played a sound bite of Obama, a White House ceremony praising the troops as they left the cities in Iraq and it really offended my sensibilities because Barack Obama and the Democrat Party were one huge obstacle our military had to overcome in achieving victory in Iraq. These people had to secure defeat. Joe Biden was damning the surge, these people were impugning David Petraeus, calling him a liar before he had even testified. And there's Obama up there taking credit for -- see, I told you, the Democrats are not going to saddle themselves with defeat here. They're going to claim credit for the win. A stand-up guy would have Bush there yesterday if there was going to be some celebration ceremony honoring the accomplishment of the troops in the surge, it was his policy. Of course, these people are not stand-up people. Bush wasn't there and wasn't invited. But they're not gonna saddle themselves with defeat. I told you this. Anyway, when we get back in the monologue segment of the next hour, there's some audio sound bites on this that you've got to hear, we put together in chronological order, which will make you as enraged as am I.
