Why not bring them all home? I'm not getting it. If 150,000 troops can't stop the killing, what good does 50,000 do? Just more targets for the crazies.

I want one of the Dem candidates to say "bring them all home."

1. "All Dems" is a ridiculous thing to say.
Do you mean some people who are registered Democrats have opinions different from yours?
