A rather juicy flashback considering today’s news that he intends to surrender territory to the same Taliban, declare them friends, and then claim victory because “friends” are in control of Afghanistan.

It seems that Candidate Obama would’ve blasted President Obama over the issue of dealing with the Taliban. But then again, Candidate Obama was attempting to win by promising to be the real-life incarnation of Rambo, while President Obama is unwilling to take a stance out of fear of pissing off his far-left, anti-war base.

These clips will come in handy next year as Obama and his Congressional allies have to deal with having shown no leadership on Afghanistan. While Americans aren’t exactly thrilled at the prospect of more troops in the war, they’re really not going to like surrendering or ignoring the advice of the generals. Especially when Obama’s actions will have directly conflicted with his promises.
