The bill is a betrayal of everything our troops have achieved.

I think Bush's plan to veto the bill will help the Democrats all the more. Especially in the next elections. Bush has nothing to lose, but the Republican party knows that they do. The Republican party lost me in part, ever since I saw and heard the deceptions in the leadup to this war. I started voting on the Democrats side of the ballot, in 2002. Until this country comes back into balance I will not stop.
During the leadup to this war between the words and images used to describe the situation. For me, the images were like looking at a Were's Waldo Picture, and using the same words used to describe that would have been just as justifiable a reason, I guess.
Like during Colin Powells presentation he had to give to the UN Security Council, that was nothing more than images of cartoons and French Manufacturing. And to think why DeVillepin had roids that day?

That bill is a political ploy to discredit anyone who voted against it in 2008. They knew very well that the president would never tolerate a bill that includes a pull-out date and they wasted a lot of OUR time and money in bringing it to a vote.
We don't elect a congress to make "political statements" by voting on a bill that they know will only be vetoed by the president.
This country has been done to death by a do-nothing congress.

I think it's quite assinine to for the democrats in congress to say that they don't support the war, and then vote to keep it going. And the bill only discusses the redeployment of combat troops. That leaves all the support troops here, who will be forced to fill combat roles. Terrorism won't stop just because you pull out the heavy guns.

I think that the Congress people who pushed that bill forward are doing exactly what the enemy wants them to do.
Me, I believe spinach farmers and peanut storage people should not need my hard-earned money.
As for Saddam --- he should have been taken out in the early 1990's when he broke the conditions of the Armistice. I distrust murderous dictators who break such contracts. I read too much history, I guess.
If we're going to re-deploy troops, maybe it should be to Washington DC. All of the service men and women I've met who have served in Iraq and Afghanistan did so with the highest regard for our country and our freedoms. I wish I could say the same for our elected officials.
Political cat fights do not amuse me.

only bush has the authority to bring the troops home. He is the commander in chief, all matters military stop at his desk.
only way to stop him is for congress to deny the troops funding, but that will just hurt our soldiers instead of the president himself.
and i seriously doubt bush has sent people there on purpose to be killed, why would he ruin his own public image like that.
and don't say because he's stupid, that just proves you don't know what you're talking about. stop blaming bush and start blaming the terrorists. aren't they our enemy?

it truly is thoroughly as a lot because the authorities of australia to make that decision. even in spite of the truth that you're allied individuals might want to recognize you're decision. despite the indisputable fact that many each body is blind and dont look on the information that began this conflict contained in the first position. Muslim extreminism has killed MANY foreigners formerly the Iraq conflict. Iran revolution, Lebanon, Sudan, united statesCole, Kuwait invasion. the first gulf conflict grow to be an finished failure because we did not instill defeat contained in the Iraq human beings. They idea they received the conflict. We fail in this conflict because we not in any respect instilled defeat. from time to time doing that contains not uncomplicated selections like again in 1945 and Hiroshima. the point of in truth is that religious followers were killing our human beings lengthy formerly we've carried out something.

The war congress authorized has been complished four years before - this is not my words, this is our commander-in-chief's own words.
Bringing out troops home is a long overdue task. Congress should not try to bargain the whole deal to begin with.
