Obama: "I Want To End Mindset That Got Us Into War In The First Place" |
|
By Greg Sargent - January 31, 2008 Obama has been frequently challenged to draw a connection between his early opposition to the war and his current candidacy, and he hasn't always delivered a solid answer. But he certainly boiled it down into one pithy line tonight: "I don't want to just end the war, but I want to end the mindset that got us into war in the first place."

2. Barack Obama is no Dennis Kucinich |
|
To hear Barack Obama tell the Fairy Tale, there's no difference between his War Record and the War Record of Dennis Kucinich.

5. Reminds me of George Bush...changing people's hearts so |
|
he could get rid of abortion.
I think the choice of the word "mindset" isn't good.

10. The comment...what George Bush said about changing people's |
|
hearts...I think this is a poor choice of words on BO's part...sounds like he's saying he knows better than the rest of us. I sort of get his point, but it's a bad way of saying it.
