Sometimes those against a troop escalation are told "hey, why didn't you complain in 2008 when Obama promised to increase troops"? And that seems fair to me.

But there seems to be another group--a group that said nothing about the need of an exit strategy in Afghanistan during the campaign. A group that supported candidate Obama's exit-less plan back then, all of a sudden now cheering the President's brand new decision to begin withdrawal in 2011 (with which I agree). What's up with that, guys?

I think there are people in both sides of this debate have not being entirely consistent.
