That is not what she said last night, but about two weeks ago she did say when she is elected POTUS that she would end the war & bring the troops home. Now if you're in doubt of that, google it & see for yourself.

You said you're not sure why our GIs would stay in Iraq, I am telling you for the same reason they're still in all of these other places. What reason do you think they would stay in Iraq? I have been to all of those duty stations as well, & then some.

How does it feel to be lied to?

Um, to occupy a country with the second largest oil reserves in the world and launch attacks against Iran and maybe Syria. Iraq is an extremely important state. It's right at the center of the world's major energy reserves (Iran and Saudi Arabia).

Don't forget Venezuela. They have oil and we want theirs too! Bomb all oil producing states!

Democrats don't vow full Iraq withdrawal by 2013

by Mark Silva

The enormity of the military conflict in Iraq was spelled out in the simplest of all admissions tonight:

Among all of the leading Democratic candidates for president, none was willing to commit to a promise in a campaign debate that all of the U.S. combat forces deployed in Iraq will be gone by 2013, the end of the next president’s term in office.

“It's hard to project four years from now," said Sen. Barack Obama of Illinois, at the start of a debate of the Democratic candidates in Hanover, N.H.

“"It is very difficult to know what we're going to be inheriting," said Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton of New York, who has vowed that if President Bush has not ended the war in Iraq by the time the next president takes office, “I will.’’

“"I cannot make that commitment," said former Sen. John Edwards of North Carolina, answering the question posed in a televised debate in the state that will hold the first of the presidential primary elections in January.

Con:

This is too funny...those who demand and end of the war have just sold out their base...feeling used anyone?

I don't know Con.....I give......What does it feel like to be lied to? Am I tired of liars and people who pretend to be something they're not? I dunno, name me any politician that doesn't lie, and pretend, and all that. If you want me to hate Hillary give me something solid and not just another hideous picture

I'll go on a limb here and say most Americans have absolutely nothing invested in this war. Please disagree and please give specifics.
