Good news imo. I know many will see it as a political move, but we need international support, and this is a step in the right direction.
-
well that's cool. It sounds like he does have a clear exit strategy.
-
Too bad there was not a clear entry strategy.
-
Smell that? smells like Victory!
I just love the smell of napalmb in the morning.
Someday this wars gonna be over.......
-
Uh.. victory?
Riiiiight (Doctor Evil mode on.)

this is a clear exit strategy?
isn't Korea a sovereign nation, under its own control? how long have we been there?
I'll be impressed when I see a concrete date for the last American GI to step onto a plane out of that country.
that's an exit stratagy, exit has to do with leaving, not who is in control.
-
well stated capt.
-

Wrong anology, we are in Korea at the request of the Korean goverment, not as occupiers. No doubt we will maintain a presence in Iraq, at the request of the Iraqui goverment.
-
if we don't leave it's not an exit, it's a transfer of power.
exit- (noun) departure, egress, outlet, way out,....
if the plan doesn't include a date when we leave, its a transfer of power stratagy not an exit stratagy. 2 completely different subjects.

Uhuh Bush is flip flopping. Now he wants to bring in international help. I thought they were either with us or against us george?
Sarcasim mode off.
I really hope he is trying to bring in some real help with iraq.

Yeppers would be nice to get back some of those BILLIONS:eek:
-
when do WE ever get money back? we put it in Haliburton takes it out. we get the bill.
-
Actually, Bush has always tried to get UN support; it is they who refuse to abide by their own resolutions and back out of commitments. Bush is doing good by allowing them to save face and rejoin the effort.
-
Hey folks - it doesnt matter if Bush* looks good or whatever - we need to fix Iraq and get our troops home ASAP. They are dying every day, over 800 deaths so far.
Plus we broke it so we gotta fix it.
The sooner we fix it and get the hell out, the better.
