He will take the same position as Bush. We need to get out in 2009, no later, no matter what situation Iraq is in. That government is so corrupt, we cannot continue to give them billions of dollars.

We saw footage of Iran's test fire of missles that can reach Isreal. We didn't end the "Cold War" with diplomacy....we won it by building up our millitary power and forcing the former USSR to try to keep pace. Build missle sites on the Iraq/Iran border....and put the fear of God or Alla in them. They can ignore and play with the world with their display of "power", ignore the world's request to abandon their missle and nuclear programs....but put enough firepower (including Nuclear Missles) pointed at Iran right next to them and "dare them" to try something.

I do not understand the the delay, is it those that are making fortunes by our occupation there such as Haliburton or other Chaney / Bush supported "independant contractors?"

That's all we have to hear from them to know that they want us out soon as well. Jack,

If Iran keeps firing missiles they will find themselves # 53. Maybe we take a few more and we will get to that 57 number Obama was talking about.

The U.S. is going to stay bogged down in Iraq until Iran and Syria get their oil…I mean their regimes changed. The bases, the Vatican-sized Embassy in the Green Zone, the Corporate Contracts (military and non-military), the Pentagon, all of the payola to Senators and Representatives---all of these entities DO NOT WANT THE U.S. TO LEAVE. We’re you know what. Oh, I didn't answer the question. The answer is yes. After all, Iraq is now sovereign nation, isn't it? El Paso, Texas Buy the clock first.

With them asking for a departure date, it kind of shoots McCain's 100 year plan right out of the water. We should set a time table with or without their urging.
