Kucinich: Obama's 'newfound' Iraq strategy is 'too little, too late'

Obama added, "Let me be clear: There is no military solution in Iraq and there never was. The best way to protect our security and to pressure Iraq's leaders to resolve their civil war is to immediately begin to remove our combat troops. Not in six months or one year -- now."

Obama said if he were president now, he would immediately begin pulling combat troops out of Iraq at the rate of two brigades -- around 4,000 troops -- a month, to be completed by the end of next year.

"Obama joked about making the speech in a city named Clinton," the Associated Press noted. "'I hope the headline when we leave is 'Clinton endorses Obama,'' he said."

Later in the day, in a press release, Ohio Congressman Dennis Kucinich challenged Obama's "newfound" Iraq strategy as "too little, too late, and too politically contrived and convenient to be credible or persuasive."

Obama appears to be finding a new strategy. It's called the Kucinich 12-Point Plan which can be found on the left hand side of www2.kucinich.us

The problem is he is picking and choosing what fits his policy and not using what doesn't and therefore creating another disastrous plan for America.

You can't use anti-war plans to continue a war. It doesn't work like that Obama. Call it pragmatism or whatever you want. If you are anti-war, defund the war now.

2. The leader who spoke.

He has been trying to correct this mess. I think,It's tome he is taken seriously.

3. Absolutely! Kaucinich has the answers before the others even think of the questions

He is the only candidate that will bring real change. The others don't even compare. For once I wish we would nominate the "best" candidate based on record and abilities, not money personality and looks. Kucinich/Edwards '08...the truth ticket. Make it happen. It's the correct change.

7. I agree.

He should be taken seriously but then again, he's not media nor DLC approved.

5. Obama is not an Elf...

How can you write such scurrilous drivel. Just because Obama finally can now see the writing on the wall (Thankfully the letters have been changed to UPPER CASE) doesn't necessarily mean that he is a mental midget!

Just because Obama is so slow it is just cruel to laugh, especially so uproariously.
