At Weasel Zippers, "McCain Shreds Obama After He Takes Credit For Success of Iraq War: “History Will Judge His Leadership With The Scorn And Disdain It Deserves”…"This is why I backed McCain in 2008. Good to hear him smack down the administration. We need to hear it.

War in Iraq Officially Over
The main story is at New York Times, "U.S. War in Iraq Declared Officially Over." (At Memeorandum.)
Also, the president's speech at Fort Bragg is at the video here. I watched it. It's ceremonial and symbolically important.
What's bothersome is that Barack Obama, during his time in the U.S. Senate and as a candidate for the White House, held more outright hostility to the war than any other Democrat at the time --- and that's quite an achievement, given the extreme antipathy to the mission in Iraq among the shitwad hate-America dirtbags, murderers, and rapists who did everything in their power to sabotage the deployment. Screw these people. At the video above, Obama in 2008 chirps all the far-left talking points on the war. None grates more obnoxiously than the claim that the "failed" and "mistaken" mission in Iraq was "detracting" from the war in Afghanistan. No sooner did Obama come to power than the stab-America-in-the-back progressives start clamoring for an end to the Afghanistan war. Yes, we can claim we won in Iraq --- and that's what the president did Wednesday in North Carlolina --- but it's an especially triumphant victory given that we beat our foes on the ground in combat and our political foes here at home. The left's war on the Bush administration's national security policy was a treasonous display of hatred that is literally unforgivable for any decent citizen who recognizes the costs of the mission for the country, and especially for those who have fought it. I am not, however, joining the bandwagon of those criticizing the administration's withdrawal. The White House botched negotiations for a continued troop presence --- and no doubt Iran will be increasing its influence in Iraq and across the region by the day --- but our support will continue in other ways, such as the continued deployment of stand-by forces throughout the Persian Gulf theater of operations.
We always find a way to prevail despite the treacherous agenda of the domestic enemies at home.

Occupy Los Angeles to Be Evicted From City Hall Park
The drug-addled anarcho-commie losers --- they're done.
At New York Times, "Occupy L.A. to Be Evicted on Monday" (Via Memeorandum.) Also at Los Angeles Times, "Villaraigosa, Beck start countdown to Occupy L.A. closure."
