Did Obama Lie To McCain, Or CBS About Afghanistan Deadline?

From Riehl World:

From a new item up at CBS:

After the briefing, Gibbs went to the president for clarification. Gibbs then called me to his office to relate what the president said. The president told him it IS locked in – there is no flexibility. Troops WILL start coming home in July 2011. Period. It's etched in stone. Gibbs said he even had the chisel.

Back to an item I posted earlier via CongressDaily. McCain was challenging Obama on the very same point.

These sources said the president responded to McCain by promising that the withdrawal would be based on conditions on the ground.

Talk about trying to please eveyone while having it both ways.

I heard him say ..'depending on events on the ground' ..therefore as usual it's all just a fucking lie. To someone. Who cares?

He can't take ANY STAND
It's not in him

He probably sits down when he pees.

Yes, I would suspect so. After all, he was raised by a single mother.
