Your so right. When every American can be counted for, is completely out of Iraq, we are out, until then, nope.
This is just to keep the wittle sheeple happy.

Fortunately we still have a lot of fine young men and women who feel it is their duty and honor to serve this nation.

This thread is hilarious. Obama and the Lemocrats ran on ending the IraQ war in 2005....six years ago.

Yet, the sheep look at it is a "promise kept." Tooooo funny!

Within 6 months ha!
How many presidential candidates have promised things that they didn't keep. I hope you are outraged by them as well. Obama didn't keep the time frame, so what, but he did end it.

I never understood why some try and belittle another poster about a typo. Does it make you feel superior or something. Seriously, I would like to know.

I usually don't, but this was an extra-funny typo. If I ever make a similar (humorous) typo, feel free to belittle me about it.

Which part of "Obama was attempting to extend the US military presence in Iraq through 2015" do you not understand?

Why would you choose to continue to be willfully ignorant on this matter?

US troops are leaving Iraq, because Iraq has kicked them out, not because Obama withdrew them. The facts are that Obama was attempting to negotiate a treaty to keep US military personnel in Iraq through 2015 and Obama failed to successfully negotiate a treaty.
