As I said, just asking

Mission accomplished, let's get the hell out.

I wish he'd pull out of Libya first, then start winding all that down next.

Mission accomplished, let's get the hell out.

10-4 on that.

We didn't go there in 2001 to fight the taliban. We went there to kill OBL.

OBL got away into Pakistan and the mission creeped into something else.



It's been so long ago most people have forgotten what the original mission really was.

Yeah right , kinda like we would be out of Iraq six months after he was elected and we are still there.

 

[Fyrtwuck]

It's time to pack our bags and leave. We've done enough, we've lost enough. It's time to let them fight their civil wars and move on with life.

 

[Twmaster]

It's time to boogie. We've lost too much already in blood and treasure.

The Afghans have been fighting each other and all comers since the beginning of time. Let them have at each other now. Bring our boys and girls in the blue and green suits home.

 

[farmerbyron]

Come on guys, he just simply needs more boots so he can go into Libya.

 

[Hobbes]

Yeah right , kinda like we would be out of Iraq six months after he was elected and we are still there.

You have a really good point right there.

He added 30,000 troops last year and he pulls out 10,000 this year. WTF?
