Obama in S.C.; toughens security stance
TAYLOR BRIGHT
Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama said Saturday he would increase troops in Afghanistan and leave a strike force in Iraq to pursue terrorist organizations if he is elected.

"During his speech, he also declared the surge has failed in Iraq and he would close the Guantanamo Bay prison in Cuba where enemy combatants are being held.

But, Obama said, he would not use the Department of Justice to investigate the administration if elected. "I don't want to waste time as president spending all our time looking backwards. I want to look forward," Obama said, adding the caveat that if evidence of criminal activity arose, he would expect it to be pursued by the Justice Department.

Obama spoke in front of a boisterous crowd in Rock Hill, receiving loud applause at points in his speech.

3. Woe is me. There is no one I can believe in. more war and criminals going free?

No one represents me.
Not even the gulps in my throat and moist eyes when I watch the celebrities can make up for war and criminals going free.

IT MEANS LITTLE PEOPLE ARE HELD ACCOUNTABLE AND OUR LEADERS GO FREE AND THE KILLING CONTINUES.

very very very sad

And everybody (not including DU) did their best to get rid of him first.
