Biden was on Leno and stated that "this summer we will be down to 50,000 who will only be in a supportive role and in a year we will be completely out of Iraq". That is what he said. Do you believe him?

That is what he said- by next year. I tried to find it on YouTube but it is not there. I have it on my DVR however and that is what he said. Why do I think this is a lie?

No, this is just another example of Joe Biden letting his alligator mouth overload his parakeet brain.

Yes, barring any unknown-unknowns, all US troops are expected to be out by the end of 2011. It's part of the agreement & withdrawl timetable that George W Bush made with the Iraqi government.


http://www.huffingtonpost.com/chris-..._b_631510.html
"Our actual "timetable for withdrawal" in Iraq was set in stone by none other than President George W. Bush, right before he left office. Less than two months before Obama's inauguration, Bush signed a "Status Of Forces Agreement" (SOFA) with the Iraqi government. This document covers all the legalities of American forces in Iraq, and it charts the end of American involvement in the country with very specific milestones. The first of these was met last summer, when American forces withdrew from Iraqi cities, and handed over control of many operations to the Iraqi government and the Iraqi military. The final milestone will be reached at the end of 2011, when all American troops are slated to be gone from Iraq for good."
