"But will they promise to increase the troops going after Osama, Al Qaeda, and the Taliban, both in Afghanistan and Pakistan?" Well, Obama has given some speeches on that issue. Not sure if Hillary has. reuters.com

Nobody knows what a Democratic President would do. Least of all the candidates themselves. Obama had to fire Samantha Power for being too honest about this.

No matter WHOM we elect, we will have to cut back in Iraq. We just can't AFFORD to have troops everywhere anymore. All that stuff about "Deficits don't Matter" and "Support our Country by going Shopping" is coming home to roost. You can't spend a Half Trillion a year on a Military and also spend a Half Trillion a year on INTEREST PAYMENTS and expect the rest of the world to FINANCE you forever!!! That's why our Dollar has become a laughing stock. Just 8 years ago you could travel anywhere in the World and pull out a fistfull of various currencies and the Vendor would dig through to find the Green U.S. stuff. Today they "avoid" the Green stuff and search for Euros or anything else.
