For all the Obama haters and conservative right wingers out there he has made good on his biggest campaign promise and ended the war, Lil Jimmy is coming home! CBS reported:
President Obama hailed the end of combat operations in Iraq Tuesday night, telling Americans that “Operation Iraqi Freedom is over, and the Iraqi people now have lead responsibility for the security of their country.”

In a twenty-minute speech to the American people from the Oval Office, the second of his presidency, Mr. Obama hailed American troops for their sacrifices in a conflict that has thus far cost more than 4,400 American lives.

“Our troops are the steel in our ship of state,” he said. “And though our nation may be travelling through rough waters, they give us confidence that our course is true, and that beyond the pre-dawn darkness, better days lie ahead.”

Though the speech was focused on Iraq, Mr. Obama pivoted to the poor economic situation at home, far and away the top concern of Americans. He said improving the economy and putting Americans back to work is “our most urgent task,” describing that goal as “our central mission as a people.”

I think this will help his legacy! Now if he can only do something about the economy and really make the haters eat their words.
