Or do they really think the electorate is this stupid?

Biden: Iraq victory a great Obama achievement.

Sometimes it feels like I’m living in an Orwell novel.  The war was won because Bush ignored naysayers like Obama and surged troops to quell an escalating insurgency.  And now Obama wants to take credit for Iraq while simultaneously blaming Bush for everything else?  Of course, we have seen plenty of evidence that this administration holds the American people in contempt, but c’mon, any sentient being recognizes this ploy for the pure BS that it is.

As Mudville Gazette notes:

There’s an odd thing about this administration claiming credit for victory in Iraq – half the country knows Biden and Obama had nothing to do with it, and the other half will never admit there is a victory to claim. However, since they think we’re all stupid, I guess the White House wants to give it a shot.

I’m sure the President sees plenty of ignorance–every time he looks in the mirror.  He’s just too ignorant to recognize it.  Which reflects poorly on him, don’t ya think?  Ahem.
