[Marxism] Obama aides




No real desire to converse with someone who calls me Orwellian. But the
strategy-study Matt Gonzalez cites says it takes 24 months to withdraw all
combat troops. Power did not say that there would not be a quick withdrawal of
combat troops; she's just saying an exact number of months is arbitrary. She
did not say it would take more than two years; she explicitly rejected a eight
year counter-insurgency plan when asked about it. She said that only Obama will
do the things necessary to make withdrawal possible without catastrope.

And the NYT misrepresents Obama's vote against the Feingold Kerrey withdrawal
act. He voted against it because it refused to give a deadline for full
withdrawal.

I am truly sorry (and very, very perplexed) that acting against cluster bombs
and getting the support of the Gitmo lawyers and refusing to give authorization
for war with Iran mean so little to you and Henwood.

AH
