The Catch-22

I caught Obama’s Iraq press conference, and I have to say that the media really earned itself an invitation to John McCain’s next BBQ with their performance. Basically, unless Obama comes out and says something like “I’m a totally unreasonable person whose views on Iraq will in no way be influenced by anyone’s advice or any possible factual developments” he’s now a flip-flopper. Meanwhile, John McCain’s views on Iraq receive no scrutiny whatsoever.
