Barack Obama actually said...

"We should start drawing down our troops, redeploying them to fight in Afghanistan and other places."

"What we can't do is continue the approach that does not ensure the sort of political solutions that are needed in Iraq."

"I did not see the president charting out a new course that would persuade either myself or the American people that -- that we're going about this thing in the right way."

"The president's logic is flawed. And I think that this enterprise has been flawed."
