No longer will US troops butcher innocent Muslim women and children!
No longer will Muslim people fear living in the US, victims of xenophobia and paranoia!
No longer will innocent Muslim civilians stay in home for fear of being shot by US troops!
Finally, the greatest military debacle since Vietnam will be over!

Scusi? Obama never said he'd withdraw the troops. You must have him confused with a less mainstream politician like Ron Paul or Ralph Nader. The Iraq war will continue, albeit in subdued form. This is why these things are so depressing. Everyone on the right spends a great deal of time making the other guy seem much more left than he is. The same thing happened with Bill Clinton. You just elected a centrist democrat, who, while willing to enact some left wing reforms, will otherwise maintain the status quo.
Edit: Also, I resent your slur of "republican bastard," Or at least I would if it made any sense. What did I say that betrayed a right wing viewpoint? Are you just labeling any criticism of Obama as right wing? Does that not make you no better than the right wing criticizers you so bemoan? These are interesting rhetorical questions that should generally be asked before saying things, not after.
