Question for American,s Are the Dem,s going to recall the troops or is their talk just water ?

Question

in Iraq,,or is it hot air like the talk to impeach Bush?

Answer 1

Yes, it's all hot air. They're all in it together and are merely trying to fool the people with talks of pulling out, etc. Big business and special interest groups own these politicians.

Good morning!

Answer 2

Right now Democrats don't have the power to withdraw the troops, they don't even have enough votes in Congress to cut the funding or pin a withdrawal timeline to an appropriations bill.

If we elect a Democratic president in 2009, they will withdraw the US troops, but they'll just do it a little sooner than the Republicans would. American lives will be saved, but probably not Iraqi lives because a bloodbath is likely to follow the US withdrawal whenever it happens.

Democrats never promised to impeach Bush, they rejected calls to make impeachment part of the 2006 party platform. Pelosi has said repeatedly that she would not support a bill for impeaching Bush. With the very narrow majority that Democrats have, they would never have enough votes to oust Bush. In any case, if Bush was impeached, Cheney would take his place, and that would be worse.

Answer 3

They had the power to do it after the 2006 elections. Instead..they chose to continue the war funding and took advantage of it to steal some money for their constituents knowing full well that the president would veto it so they could say that HE was the one who didn't care about the troops.
Shameful political posturing and an insult to the people who voted for them.
Even Rodham Clinton said: "It would be dangerous to withdraw troops at the present time but, they can't stay forever"
I guess that means she will pull them out sometime between now and the end of time. Thanks Hillary.

Richardson Says: Pull the troops out now, set up oil revenue sharing, set up local governments, train the Iraqi military. Can someone tell me how you do all that without troops?

Biden says: Pull the troops out now and divide the country into three autonomous zones. With no troops, does he think they will suddenly do this voluntarily?

Edwards says: We should not say anything now that will limit our options.

Obama says: Bring the troops home now and invade Pakistan. Invade with what, robots?

Pelosi said, before the elections: "We will end this war! Once in office she said: "We will raise the minimum wage!

Sooooo------The Democrats have already answered your question.

Answer 4

If you are referring to a democratic president, the answer is no. It would be political suicide to withdraw the troops before the objective is achieved. That is why they were pressuring Bush to do it. But now that it is apparent that he will not, you can already see the democrats positioning themselves as supporting the effort in Iraq.

.

Answer 5

If the democrats really wanted the troops out they would just stop the funding. They don't need a majority, they could play obstructionist politics and just not agree to any more funding, end of war. The republicans don't have enough votes to push funding through and the democrats don't have the balls to stop the funding. We'll be staying in Iraq until the end of the Bush administration, and my guess, we'll be there after he leaves office for at least a couple more years. We are at a stalemate in Iraq, damned if we do and damned if we don't.

Answer 6

hot air to get the libs to vote and rally behind them hell Barak already slipped up and said he wanted more troops there to finish the job exacly the same thing Bush wants and besides if we did pull out all troops are we going to do the same for the troops in south korea and germany and so on and so on? come let the troops do their jobs and then they will come home

Answer 7

No It would not be beneficial for anyone to remove the troops except for the troops. This is pandoras box opened. You have persons who lived in a controlled and violent regime and now given freedom overnite. They have no education on democracy or even rights as we know them. The women are dominated by the men and they have no freedom. The men are not so educated on foreign affairs and fear the results of democracy as it is interpreted because of many persons who abuse America's freedoms.It is equivalent to living in the 1950 and now, in America. They have the religious teachings which are not in conjunction to progress as we know it. We need to show these persons how to live in this era and do it in a way which is not offensive to their beliefs. America needs role models who are not offensive as HIILTON AND THAT CREW but thats a different story. Still we need to build and assist on a humanitarian level since there was no weapons of mass destruction and although we agree to disagree on most things we need to show these persons how
life can be easier with food and manufactoring and electricity and peace I said and Peace I said in Peace.........Does anyone get it. The surge is neccessary because in order to build in Iraq the violence must stop. In order to progress in Iraq to assist correctly the violence of insurgency must stop.

Answer 8

Yes, honey, it's just hot air. Haven't you figured that out yet. They put on a big show about it, to fool people into believing that's what they want. But they knew, honey, it would never pass.

Answer 9

As always, suthrnlyts gives a great answer. I would add, that the "Dem,s" can't pull our troops out of anywhere without Republican backing. It takes two to tango.

Answer 10

About the only things dems can recall are how many seats they have in their new jets (since being elected.)

Promises? Their reply: "Are you being serious?"
