Eric Peterson:
Jesse James Burnitt:
Get the hell out! We’ve wasted enough money, time, resources and most importantly, human lives. Start focusing on putting this damned country back together.
Stephen Dark:
Judging by the bloodshed in Iraq this week, surges followed by “exit, stage right” don’t work. And judging by the recent American deaths in Afghanistan, the number of flag-draped coffins returning to this country will continue to rise. Stay or go? Either way, Obama’s screwed. My guts say, “Finish the job,” but then I don’t have to send people to do it.
Julie Erickson:
Which mess do you pick? The mess we’ve created over the last decade in Afghanistan, or the mess we’ve made over the past decade in our own land.
Jesse Fruhwirth:
Paraphrasing Camille Paglia, Gore Vidal and Andrew Bacevich: Terrorism cannot destroy America, but mounting national debt from imperial adventures could. Get out now.
Nick Clark:
Asking people like me who don’t fully understand military matters is what got us into this mess in the first place.
Doug Kruithof:
Out, I say … get out now!
Lia Pretorius:
It’s too bad he can’t turn back the clock to September 2001 and send the troops that went to Iraq to Afghanistan instead.
