Obama Defends War

I wonder how many liberals are regretting their vote now. Probably none, but it must be driving a few crazy.

Nobel-winning Obama defends war in call for peace

"I face the world as it is, and cannot stand idle in the face of threats to the American people," Obama told his audience in Oslo's soaring City Hall. "For make no mistake: Evil does exist in the world."

"A nonviolent movement could not have halted Hitler's armies. Negotiations cannot convince al-Qaida's leaders to lay down their arms."

"To say that force is sometimes necessary is not a call to cynicism, it is a recognition of history."

I don't regret my vote because McCain or any Republican would have been much worse but I am deeply disappointed in Obama he is not living up to his promises, next time I will vote Feingold or Kucinich in the primaries and more to the left democrats in all the other races...Obama is too far to the right we need to move even further left for rational moral change.
