I thought Iraq was the number one issue. I thought Iraq was the reason we won the 2006 midterms

1. This is typical of the media

They're quoting that they can't guarantee that ALL US troops will be out of Iraq. The fact is, you can't pull everyone out overnight. There will be a minimal security force there, but that's about it. The Iraq War will be over. They will be re-deployed.

2. They also don't know what madness Bush will inflict on the

situation in the next 15 months.

Russert brought up the date and then crowed afterward that they couldn't guarantee it.

What an ass.

4. We packed up and pulled out of Vietnam and the same should happen here

3. The country would be bankrupt by then
