November 2007: The Americans did a sweep of the congress and senate. We made it clear to Bush and his administration that the American people do not support his ill planned and ill conceived war. Congress is doing it's job and representing the majority of the people and making efforts to stop the war. It's a clear message to Bush that we are not just giving him a blank check anymore.
What's wrong with these people who support the war? When will they wake up?
And how do they come up with the notion that by pulling out troops, we're putting them in harms way?
I always thought by keeping them in Iraq without the proper body armor, faulty humvees, and keeping our men and women overworked and understaffed and without a proper plan was harming them.

All I can say about this is that my eyes are finally open!! I have supported Bush and this administration from the start and I know that 9/11 had a big part in my decisions and opinions. I have been waiting and hoping for the past year and a half that he would start to pull troops out of there and i am so disappointed. I fell like he is a very stubborn man and will not give at all. Its like its a power struggle for him and he doesn't care about our troops or their families. I'm sorry it took me so long to see whats really going on here.

I support(ed) the war. With all the BS that happened back in the early 2k's (9/11, weapons inspectors), a lot of bad stuff was said about, and done to, the US. Iraq threatened us with WMDs and Bush took action (and you have to admit, the majority of the US citizens at that time were pro-war).
His planning...sucked. He said "Okay Iraq sucks. We're going to go in there and blow them away." That didn't work; terrorists are harder to kill then we thought. So since that plan was destroyed, Bush had to try to come up with something....which failed. Again and again, it failed.
If we had a more tactical plan and a detailed schedule for Iraq, this case would be a lot different.

A sweep does not constitute a 51 Democrats to one Independant, and 48 Republicans in the Senate.

When will you wake up? You have no clue why we are over there or what the mission is. All you people do is rant and rave and whine. Do your homework and if you have an ounce of common sense follow through to the end game. You will see things differently. I will ask that you use your own research and not what your handlers feed you. The stupidity and blatant ignorance of Liberals is really beginning to annoy the hell out of me.

well we kept our republican in office...and i support the war...my brother just got back a few weeks ago from Iraq and leaves in 2 weeks to go again...he supports the war...apparently there is something he sees there that you don't...besides i think the point of people putting in democrats was to balance power...NOT cut and run...

I'm sorry to break this to you.. but more and more troops will be heading into the middle east.. before you know it, they will be in Iran, maybe Syria, maybe North Korea and Jordan, and maybe even in Venezuela. (didn't you know the Bin Laden is now hiding in a cave in Venezuela??)

Bush acts like he is a time traveler, and thus knows the future.
