Iraq is stable enough to allow the roughly 22,000 U.S. Marines there to withdraw, the service's top general said Friday."The time is right for Marines in general terms to leave Iraq," said Marine Corps Commandant James Conway.
This is good news. Now, maybe, we can start going after the people that caused 9/11.
But, it strikes me that just a week ago, even has Bush was about to be relieved of his duties as POTUS, we were being warned that pulling out of Iraq would be too dangerous.
It either means that Obama is the deity that the right keep insisting that he is, and was able to change Iraq around in four days, or that Bush was lying. Again.

Umm. Capper, I know you know this. Bush was talking about a total pullout of all troops, not a draw down of forces.
ReplyDeleteBill, good buddy, Bush was against even the draw down.
