Clearly this is not happening. Why is no one holding him accountable?

Our military told him it would be 12 to 18 months before any large group of our troops & materials could SAFELY be removed from Iraq. And two to three years before a majority of the troops could be pulled out.

He listened to them.

I wonder what happened to all the Leftists that used to protest the wars in the streets before Obama was elected? How come they are not protesting the wars anymore? The hypocrisy of both left and right is just UNBELIEVABLE!

I have no interest in Iraq and can't see why one American should lose his life for that country

Heck whats the ex aid that called Hillary a monster. She came out and said that Obama was just saying that about pulling out of Iraq to get elected that he didnt plan to keep his promise.

People I spoke to about that just dismissed it as she was upset for being let go

I agree wholeheartedly!

But while Halliburton, Blackwater, etc., are making money it WILL CONTINUE.
