The suckers that bought that political lie from Obama were hoodwinked!

Exactly... too bad they'll learn their lesson after they already voted for him... obama has back peddled on every one of his campaign promises when he ran for the Senate, why should he do anything differently now?

I say voter remorse will set in very soon after his inauguration...

<There is no way we can leave that country while their pants are down ( so to speak ). They are so vulnerable and possess way too much oil. It would be disastrous to leave all that oil for the rest of the world to control.............and China would likely be the benefactor.>

Ummmm, it's THEIR oil no?

<We'll never leave.............I dont' care who promises what..........it ain't never gonna happen in my lifetime or yours.>

I think you are mistaken. Time will tell... if the American people WANT us out, which apparently is the case, then it's the easiest decision a president could have!! Get a LOT of credit with no work!

Re: "I just can't see us leaving the most shallow oil reserves in the world... China would likely be the benefactor.... We'll never leave.............I dont' care who promises what..........it ain't never gonna happen in my lifetime or yours."

Er... China is *already* a 'beneficiary'.

(If you've been watching recent news from Iraq you will have noticed that CHINA just signed a huge new multi-decade oil deal with Iraq. BEFORE any of our companies. And, likely Russia's Gazprom will be coming next. <g>)

And, of course, Iraq initialed a 'mutual defense Treaty' with Iran a couple of years ago....

And, as far as 'never leave', perhaps you should familiarize yourself with the pull-out terms in the new status of forces treaty that we are about to sign with Iraq....
