From CNN’s Paul Steinhauser and Chris Welch (CNN) — Call it take two. Barack Obama held a second news conference with reporters in North Dakota Thursday, to deny any suggestions that he’s changing his position on withdrawing all combat troops from Iraq. The presumptive Democratic presidential nominee opened his second go-around with reporters by saying, “We’re going to try this again. Apparently I wasn’t clear enough this morning on my position with respect to the war in Iraq. I have said throughout this campaign that this war was ill-conceived, that it was a strategic blunder and that it needs to come to an end.” |
