What’s a timeline for our commitment? Or is there no limit to the time that we could be there? Thanks in advance.

How about “Until the job is finished”? Can you comprehend that? If you could, please name ANY other war the U.S. has been involved in that we have had a timeline for.

What’s a timeline for our commitment?

What’s the timeline of commitment for the morons incapable of considering how this affects AQ strategy or is just allying with enemies of America still voluntary?

Next time the clue bus drives by, be sure to step out in front and show’em how it’s done?

What’s a timeline for our commitment?

I’ll bet that AQ has the same question. Isn’t it odd how their aims seem to coincide so well with our leftists?

The answer, of course, is that the timeline ends when the job is done, as Sev says.

I’d hate to have you as a parent jpe. I can see you when the kid’s say 3 or 4 year old, asking him “What’s the committment? I mean, how long do you expect me to take care of you?” You do it until the job is done, not look for excuse to shirk your responsibility. Where is the timeline for Bosnia/Kosovo? Hmmmmm…we’re still there, is that OK since it was Clinton’s war?

Hey jpe, what was our commitment in WWII?? The genius of the liberation of Iraq, is that we now have Al-Queda coming to us. Presently Iraq is the central front on the War on Terror with AQ, and now people on the left want to cut and run?? Don’t make no sense to me, I don’t see how it does to you. – Lorica

So, the surge is supposed to lay the conditions for a stable Iraq so that we can, eventually, leave. What’s a timeline for our commitment? Or is there no limit to the time that we could be there? Thanks in advance.

The bottom line is the libs are tired of supporting the troops. They want to go back to openly hating the military and cutting the Defense budget.

The left also has a mega-case of BDS. They don’t see Iraq as anything else than an opportunity to defeat Bush.

As with the VT shooting, the left doesn’t look beyond their discredited nostrums for their course of action. They can’t reason out cause and effect.

A sign in normal American stores can sum the Iraq situation up easily:

“You break it – you bought it.”

So, in other words, by removing Saddam, we essentially “broke it”, and it is now our obligation to “fix it”. It is our mess, for good or bad.

We have an obligation of getting this country back on its feet – once that is done, it will no longer be broken.

As Bakalava likes to state, much of what is being griped and harped on is now the past, what are you going to do about the present and future?

Troop withdrawl at this time will lead to a complete break down of Iraq. If people think it is bad now, withdrawl the troops like Democrats want and see what happens then.

Here, let’s experiment, withdraw all police, emergency personnel, national guard, security personnel…ect from New York or Detroit, or Chicago – and tell me what happens. This will be small potatoes comparing to what will happen in Iraq.

To me, this guy, being in Iraq, seeing the results of both what the surge is accomplishing, and what happened before, has the Ultimate Moral Authority Card in my opinion. But that’s not how the libs will view it.
