Obama flip-flops on surge, admits he was stunningly wrong

He of Superior Judgment has finally stopped denying reality.  From FNC:

The troop surge in Iraq has been more successful than anyone could have imagined, Barack Obama conceded Thursday in his first-ever interview on FOX News’ “The O’Reilly Factor.”

As recently as July, the Democratic presidential candidate declined to rate the surge a success, but said it had helped reduce violence in the country. On Thursday, Obama acknowledged the 2007 increase in U.S. troops has benefited the Iraqi people.

“I think that the surge has succeeded in ways that nobody anticipated,” (except for McCain – Ed.) Obama said while refusing to retract his initial opposition to the surge. “I’ve already said it’s succeeded beyond our wildest dreams.” …

Because the left just knew those incompetent boobs in uniform were going to screw it up like they always do, right?  For those of you on the left, the prior sentence was sarcasm.

Anywho, this reversal ought to torque the moonbats.
