Obama Speaks Truth on Iraq [VIDEO]

World

Those of you who've been thinking that Barack Obama lacks the toughness to endure the long haul in a bitter presidential campaign should take a look at the video to your right. Obama is unwavering and absolutely correct in his critique of Mitt Romney and especially John McCain in a speech he made yesterday before the Coalition of Black Trade Unionists Convention in Chicago. It's nice to see a little bit of fire and passion from Obama, who'd been seeming a little too timid lately on the campaign trail and in the Senate. If he had the audacity to run for president, as he likes to say, than he needs to continue to show the audacity of sticking by his early strong anti-war statements and use all of his popularity and clout to bring attention to the failure of this war.
