Palin gets a couple good shots in, here, about Iraq and funding for troops. She notes that Biden voted the opposite of Barack Obama the time Obama voted against troop funding. “You even said you’d be honored to be on the same ticket with him. That’s an indication of the support I think you had for him, at least before you became the running mate.” “I don’t know how you can defend that position now,” she said of Obama’s vote against troop funding. She called the Obama/Biden plan a “white flag of surrender in Iraq,” and correctly noted that al-Qaeda thinks Iraq is the central front in the war on terror.
