ABOARD AIR FORCE ONE -- As he prepares to herald the end of the U.S. combat mission in Iraq, President Barack Obama has spoken by phone to former President George W. Bush.

Aides say Obama placed the call from Air Force One Tuesday as he flew to Fort Bliss in Texas to speak to U.S. troops. Obama is scheduled to address the nation on Iraq from the Oval Office at 8 p.m. EST.

Deputy national security adviser Ben Rhodes said the call to Bush lasted a few minutes. But neither he nor others would relate what was said. Republicans have criticized Obama for opposing both the war and Bush's troop surge plan while preparing to note with fanfare the successful handover of control to Iraqi forces.

And 50,000 will remain with the largest embassy in the world and we'll act like we're not even there any more.

Please provide evidence that President Obama promised to bring "all" the troops home from Iraq...

Never swear "allegiance" to anything other than the 'right to change your mind'!
