  • Insightful, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Before the conservative 25-percenters jump in and say "hey, isn't a withdrawal what the liberals wanted!", I would like to add:

    1. It is not what the liberals want, it is what this country - 70+% of Americans want.

    2. When Americans asked a date for withdrawl, we were called as reinforcing the enemy propaganda. So when this administration does it, what is it called?

    “Premature and public discussion of the withdrawal of U.S. forces from Iraq reinforces enemy propaganda that the United States will abandon its allies in Iraq.” [Undersecretary of Defense Eric Edelman, 7/16/07]
