(12,629 posts)"He conveniently comes out with this statement right when Obama sends troops to Iraq. What happened to the last 11 years when he aggressively defended the Iraq war? i was born at night but not last night.
Beck is an extreme partisan hack who hates Obama's guts and has called him a racist among other indignities, so you know he's licking his chops to turn this decision into an anti-Obama narrative of some kind. Problem is he cant do that after supporting the Bush war, so he has to give some faint mea culpa, so he can dive into his anti-obama agenda full on. You think his listeners what to hear balanced, reasoned commentary? They pay him to hear how Obama is ruining their lives and is comparable to hitler. Hes trying to circumvent supporting Obama, w/o coming across as a raging hypocrite."
Yep.
