“I will promise you this, that if we have not gotten our troops out by the time I am president, it is the first thing I will do. I will get our troops home. We will bring an end to this war. You can take that to the bank.” - Candidate Barack Obama, October 27, 2007.
++++++++++
First, Obama did not get the troops out right away when he was in the office of President. He followed Bush's withdrawal schedule. Then, a couple years later, he started bombing them and putting 'special forces' back in there. And we now have thousands of troops back in Iraq and we are still bombing the snot out of them. This war of aggression is a massive crime, and it is a real shame (in my eyes) that the American people are not suffering like they have made the Iraqi people suffer over the last few decades. We started bombing Iraq in 1991 and never really stopped. The Iraqi people and their government did nothing to us.
This is far from the only promise that Obama did not keep.
