Things Change So Soon...

Well, it didn't take long this time did it? I get in my car this morning to drive to work and of course I am listening to AM 750 WSB for traffic and the morning news. One of the first stories I hear is of the changing winds of the campaign trail. I had to make sure that I heard correctly so I stayed in my car once I arrived at work to make sure that I had heard the story correctly.
Are you ready, because this one is altogether not that shocking. It seems once again as the political winds change (Gen. Petraeus's approval rating being high, and the fact that there was an upturn in war numbers) that Sen. Clinton and Sen. Obama have decided that "committing to an actual hard date of 2013 would be irresponsible because they don't know what they are getting into."


Excuse me!!! For over two years all we have heard is things like:


Pull Them Out Now!!, Bring Home the Troops!!


Now Pres. Bush starts giving numbers and the Democratic candidates start stating things like they aren't sure what they have gotten into. And that promising a date 4 years out might be irresponsible. Ladies and Gentlemen that came from the mouth of Hillary Clinton. Excuse me Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton. I have said from the beginning running this country on the backs of popular opinion polls is irresponsible and a violation of what the Constitution defines the Executive branch as well as the Legislative branch to be, and now we see a real example of this.
