Obama is screwing up ... and it is heartbreaking for the millions of young people who have put their dollars into his campaign. Hillary's dynastic position is repugnant, but her savvy is shining. He's gotta go "over the edge" and get seriously consistent on the "anti-war" position. His proposed sixteen month withdrawal from Iraq then waffling on it in the event of a sectarian civil war does him no good. Clinton seems determined to cut off the money going to Iraq to the private contractors, follow the link above, but that doesn't mean she can overcome the large distaste independent and non-interventionist conservatives share for her. Obama would do better with a strident clear anti-imperialist message, including a NAFTA trashing - something both seem to constantly qualify with "amendments." This "hillbilly anarchist" out here in Kansas still sees nothing wrong with the "isolationist" smear, the country needs to dump the multinationals and get homey and quick. Listen to Stiglitz section above about the $3 trillion price tag for all this oil madness. Read, watch or listen to that exclusive here.
