Sully, Children, American Children, because those who fight are mostly barely adults, are dying because BOTH parties asked them to fight in Iraq. Imagine how someone today whose son has just come back in a box, in Vietnam they were steel with glass windows you looked through, and sealed. Imagine losing your child, seeing but not being allowed to touch his or her body, and then going through a Military Funeral Ceremony with the guns going off, and then seeing healthy young men and women dishonouring that sacrifice. There is not honor in Hilary saying well maybe I was misinformed. She was right, or she was wrong. I believe that it might be necessary to debate Iraq, perhaps the United States does need an exit strategy, but most wars, are fought to win, most warriors don't have the ability to figure out, the "what ifs" of Political Games. I don't recall Senator Clinton or any of the bright lights of the Democratic party asking about an Exit strategy before the vote. Why not? The part of the the opposition party in any Democracy is to ask those kind of questions. What did the Democrats ask about the exit Strategy and when? If they did not ask, why did they not ask? How could the Democrats fail the American people in such a huge responsibility. People claim this is Bush's war, it isn't. It was voted for and passed by congress. What did the Democrats do to ensure there was an exit strategy, and when did they do it? What exactly is an exit strategy? What was the exit strategy in WWII, and when will it be implemented? What was the Korean War Exit strategy, and how well has it worked? We all know how well the Exit strategy worked in Vietnam. If there has never been an exit strategy, when was the idea created and by whom. If it is an idea the Demorats came up with after the war started, lets talk about that. If it was started before the US went to war, let us look at what questions the Demorats asked, to ensure a safe and complete exit strategy was available for the US troops to leave, and if it can be employed. If the Demorats did not ask, did not ensure such a valuable plan was in effect, then can someone ask Senator Clinton why She failed the United States and it's military, by not asking such an important question.
