So why are the troops still over there in Iraq and Afghan.?
How could pulling out of those two countries right now leave a mess any bigger than what is going on in our own country?

1. exactly what I said yesterday-- he has the perfect excuse to pull the
troops out NOW and bring them home, without loss of face or whatever the hell motivates him

2. Haven't you heard?
Now , they're there to "protect the oil from falling into terra-ist hands".

The new excuse has been publicized.

5. Notice this is the first time * mentioned Osama's name in 3 years!
I say, let him have the oil wells. When he shows up for the shareholders meetings we can grab him then.
