<p>Sorry but 100 years in Iraq is not a reality I’d like to see. I do agree that he is a hero though.</p>

<p>“I never heard Hillary say 6 months”</p>

<p>She did in the CNN South Carolina debate. I was stunned she would telegraph her strategic plans to insurgents.</p>

<p>On the issue of Iraq, Clinton was asked if she is looking to end the war or win it.</p>

<p>“I’m looking to bring our troops home, starting within 60 days of my becoming president,” she said. “There is no military solution, and our young men and women should not remain as the referees of their conflict.” </p>

<p>Simba, reports from today’s appearance in El Paso indicate that she promised to start the withdrawal from Iraq within … 60 days. Of course, she is very much aware of Ft. Bliss being in El Paso.</p>

<p>Koolaid or firewater … the locals were all too happy to drink it to the last drop. The same (biased) reports commented that the entire scene in El Paso was sickening, but not surprising considering the past voting history of El Paso.</p>

<p>mo2 - I don’t think McCain means 100 years of “fighting”. I think he envisions our presence such as what we currently have in Germany, Italy, England, Iceland, Spain, etc.</p>

<p>Having bases in Iraq would be beneficial for us (and other countries in the region) once the area is stabilized. Without our presence (now that Amedinejad has come to power) Israel would cease to exist. If you think the area is in chaos now, imagine what it would be like if we weren’t there!</p>

<p>That has been one of the ultimate goals of the Bush Administration (though unstated) from the very beginning. And I see no reason, based upon her past rhetoric to believe that Hillary Clinton will deviate from that goal. If that is indeed what John McCain meant when he referred to being in Iraq for 100 years, you can believe Hillary is signed on 100%.</p>

<p>Actually, it was the goal of the Clinton Administration, as the country that owns us kicked the U.S. out of its territory.</p>

<p>anyone see there’s some more shuffling again within Hillary’s campaign again? Out is the deputy campaign manager.</p>

<p>“As William J. Stuntz of Harvard Law School wrote in The Weekly Standard, the Democrats have conducted their race amid unconstrained “Yes We Can!” unreality. Because the Democratic candidates appear to agree on so much, they’ve never tested each other’s policy proposals or exposed each other’s assumptions. But governing means choosing, and reality will be unkind.”</p>

<p>So true.</p>
