1. I agree. Let's bring them home.

Just adding this sentence, “The current Iraq strategy has no discernible end in sight and requires the United States to spend additional hundreds of billions of dollars despite urgent national needs in education, health care, and infrastructure improvement, and when high oil prices have provided the Iraqi government with billions in additional revenue that could pay for their own redevelopment and security"

They will never use their power because they keep hoping for "success" in Iraq, whatever that means in their twisted little minds.
