We are engaged in a winless and merciless war in Iraq. We overthrew an egotistic dictator who thought nothing of throwing away lives in a meaningless conflict with Iran. Now, we mirror this historic act by throwing away lives in a civil conflict has no beginning or no end.
Any elected official who intends to win office or to retain that office had best work for a solution of withdrawal. The Russians lost in Afghanistan because they attempted to shore up a sympathetic puppet government, and we're walking down that same road in Iraq.
Get out, and stay out.

Get out and stay out? Is
Get out and stay out? Is this said because you have an overwhelming concern for the soldiers who place their lives on the line day after day to ensure that the citizens of Iraq can one day live with the same freedoms we as U.S. citizens enjoy? Or is this comment said because you're all about keeping the peace, the whole make love not war mentality? Or is it said because there is worry about the national deficit, our nation's spending habits? Seriously, get over it. We are there, we are staying there. It is what it is. Put your efforts into supporting the troops who unselfishly put their lives on the line for those they do not know.
AMEN!!!
AMEN!!!
