NEW YORK, July 22 (UPI) -- Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani said Tuesday it appears U.S. Sen. Barack Obama had his mind made up before his trip this week to Iraq and Afghanistan.
Giuliani, a former Republican Party presidential candidate, told NBC's "Today Show" he doesn't understand how Obama, D-Ill., can insist, after seeing the results in Iraq, that he would still oppose the troop surge that has led to as much as an 80-percent reduction in violence.
