67. I think
That the people that are over in Iraq now for longer than they were told they would be...

That the Guardsmen and Reserves whose families are at home having a hard time putting food on the table because they lost their private sector salaries...

That the women and children yearning and hoping each day that their husbands and fathers and wives and sons and daughters can come home because they have been there too long...

I think they would all disagree with you that this is a bad idea.

The troops are overextended.
The Guards and Reserves have been taken advantage of.
Families are hurting.

The war will go on until it is done, no matter what.

We need this so that our troops can rotate and come home. If not, the stop loss will continue and that is just wrong.
