Neato. This is Obama's foreign policy adopted by... Bush. McCain must be disappointed: no longer will get to send our sons and sons into a war zone for 100 more years.

Go Obama!!!

Iraq troop pullout proposal
• American troops would leave Iraq cities as soon as June 30.
• Iraq is pushing for all U.S. troops to leave Iraq by the end of 2011.)

But-But I thought McCain was going to stay in Iraq for 100 years!

I guess Obama lied/flip flopped on that statement also.

You missed the point. Here we are only 10 weeks away from the election, and the war issue - one of the Dems two main issues - is disappearing with Bush (and McCain if he handles it right) taking much of the credit.

And in case you missed it, gas prices will likely be coming down all of the months of September and October.

Obama's mountain to climb may have just gotten a little steeper...

You can thank Obama for that.
And he's not even president yet.
But now watch the rabid neocons quoting Rush Limbaugh's "Democrats want you to lose" to our troops.
Win/Lose ... what nonsense!
Everybody loses in war - except the war-profiteers.
Just ask Dick and Lynn Cheney.
(former CEO's of defense contractors, Halliburton and Lockheed Martin)

Bush and the GOP will do anything for political gain. Nothing is below them.

PLEASSSSE. You are idiots. Take your biased and empty heads out of the sand and look around. There is a real world out there.

We beat Nazi Germany and the Japanese Empire in 4 years. How long have we been in that small country called Iraq>

This is all baloney. How can anyone believe any of it! Does any one even know why we went over there in the first place? NO. Because they have changed the reasons so many times that we are all confused. Why do we have the right to dictate anything to them including what form of government they should have. Hitler used the same tactics to convince the Germans to go to war with Poland. I wondered how he was able for years to be so convincing to the German people to rid the world of "less desirables". How he got control over the minds of good God fearing people. I think we ought to take a look back into history and we will see that we too are creating another Germany or worse.

People like me are accused of being unpatriotic and not for supporting the troops. Nonsense! I am for the protection of our young men and young women and not putting them unnecessarily in harms way. I want them home protecting our country.

see how permanent this deal is going to be. Nothing is certain in Politics anymore...

To "Retired Military," in Nazi Germany and Japan we used tactics that, even in the Vietnam War, were considered politically incorrect. We fire-bombed Dresden and Tokyo. Our British allies bombed during the night, and we continued in the daytime. When peace was still a distant issue with Japan, Truman (Democrat) decided to end the war with two nuclear fission bombs. Had the U.S. invaded Japan, the war would have dragged on for at least two more years--the military leaders expected it. And the invasion would have cost over one million American lives--that doesn't include the fact that the Japanese were committed to fighting to the last human beig. It worked. In WWII, we had clear-cut knowledge of whom and what our enemies were. Our enemies were "man"-enough to come out and fight us in the open. Remember, also, that our great Democratic Presidents, during Vietnam escalated that war, and allowed it to drag on and on. It was finally when we started bombing No. Vietnam in the relentless Linebacker I and II campaigns, that the NVA finally decided to talk to us. We could end all of this crap, but our PC, bleeding hearts wouldn't allow it.

Hey Baloney... do you recognize "Geogia" and "Russia"? I guess Bush started that war also!!!!

How amazingly childish the war-mongering neocons are!
They make it sound as if war is like watching a football game or something.
True jingoists through and through.
If it wasn't for Obama and Democrats bringing this thing to a head we'd STILL be headed for McCain and the neocons 100-year war.
How utterly stupid the neocons are!

To "Anonymous," what crawled up your rear-end? Obama hasn't done a thing for the Iraq war. He wouldn't even visit a hospital unless his media brown-nosers could go in. The Dem-controlled Congress has the lowest popularity rating of ANY Congress, EVER! The Dems have done nothing but denounce the war, the surge and all things Pres. Bush. They do so with very little actual basis for their criticisms, and before they rationally look at the facts. They are naive and foolish. Some, like Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid, are the epitome of open mouth--insert foot, and they are the epitome of the word "ass."

No caps were used in the writing of this statement. These are fact and not emotions.

Nazi Germany was a military power. Iraq had been bombed and boycotted and policed with no fly zones.

Why would we have invaded Japan and risked lives? Japan was cut off from the rest of the world, Japan's cities were in ruin, Japan couldn't feed it's self. Japan was suing for peace.

Obama didn't visit the military hospital because he was running for president. He felt going to a hospital would reduce our brave soldier in to political pawns. Values escape conservatives who lie routinely to win.

I'm glad we are leaving that hell hole. If I never got back it will be too soon (Unless I get a job as a contractor) wish me luck.
