A lot of people believe Iraq will collapse without a US security force being left in place, but of course the President HAS to abide by that 10 page ironclad SOFA agreement. Besides he can always blame it on Bush if Iraq fails.

Do you think we should stay in Iraq longer?

I just thought it was funny that you thought the idea of getting out of Afghanistan by a certain date was such a bad idea but that is really why were getting out of Iraq now and you didn't seem to concerend about the "end date" for it.

And yes I know Obama could have kept troops there longer if he wanted to but I along with a majority of people always thought he should have ended it years ago so if you think ending it now is going to do him any favors come election time i just don't see it.
