OBAMA - "THE COWARDLY LIAR": ONCE SAID HE KNEW SURGE WOULD WORK; TWICE SAID IT WOULD FAIL, AND ALSO CLAIMED THE DEM-DOVES WERE WHY IT SUCCEEDED!

NRO/CORNER/CLIFF MAY:

at the debate in New Hampshire Saturday night he [OBAMA] said:

Now, I had no doubt — and I said at the time, when I opposed the surge, that given how wonderfully our troops perform, if we place 30,000 more troops in there, then we would see an improvement in the security situation and we would see a reduction in the violence.

But a year ago this month, on ABC’s Nightline, Obama said

The problem we have is Shia and Sunni are unwilling to compromise and arrive at the sort of accommodations that would lead to stability. And in the absence of that, 20,000 troops is not gonna make a difference.

He said almost the same thing on Larry King’s show:

But I did not see anything in [President Bush’s] speech or anything in the run-up to the speech that provides evidence that an additional 15,000 to 20,000 more U.S. troops is going to make a significant dent in the sectarian violence that's taking place there.

OBAMA REVEALS A FEW THINGS:

• HE'S AS GOOD A LIAR AS BILL CLINTON AND MIKE HUCKABEE
• AND HE KNOWS NOTHING ABOUT MILITARY AFFAIRS.

EARLIER, OBAMA CLAIMED THAT DEMOCRAT [PRESSURE CREATED THE POST-SURGE SUCCESS AND NOT THE SURGE (VIA GATEWAY):

I would point out that much of that violence has been reduced because there was an agreement with tribes in Anbar province -- Sunni tribes -- who started to see, after the Democrats were elected in 2006, you know what, the Americans may be leaving soon, and we are going to be left very vulnerable to the Shi'as. We should start negotiating now. That's how you change behavior.

THIS ALL ADDS UP:

• FOR HIS PREVARICATIONS ABOUT WHERE HE STOOD ON THE SURGE
• AND HIS FANTASY EXPLANATION ABOUT IT'S SUCCESS
• OBAMA PROVES HE IS UNFIT TO BE COMMANDER IN CHIEF.

• REPEAT: ALL OF HIS EXPLANATIONS CANNOT BE TRUE; HIS CONFLICTING NARRATIVES REVEAL HIS HAS NO COMPUNCTION ABOUT BALD-FACED LYING, AND HASN'T A CLUE ABOUT MILITARY AFFAIRS.

• HE IS UNFIT TO BE PRESIDENT OF THE USA. ESPECIALLY DURING WARTIME.

OBAMA REMINDS ME OF THE GUILTY DEFENDANT ACCUSED OF STEALING AND WRECKING A CAR - WHO SAID UNDER OATH:

"FIRSTLY, YER HONOR, I NEVER DROVE THE MAN'S CAR; SECONDLY, HE LENT IT TO ME; THIRDLY, I RETURNED IT IN PERFECT CONDITION!"
