Families of Iraq Soldiers Want Our Troops Home Sooner
Here's a stunning poll from the Los Angeles Times that you won't hear discussed on TV:
Q: Should the United States withdraw troops from Iraq right away or should the U.S. begin bringing troops homw within the next year, or should troops stay in Iraq for as long as it takes to win the war?
| All respondents | Households with active military/vets |
Households with military in Iraq/vets |
|
| Bring home right away | 23 | 21 | 27 |
| Bring home within next year | 41 | 37 | 42 |
| Stay as long as it takes | 29 | 35 | 26 |
| Don't know | 7 | 7 | 5 |
So families of Iraq soldiers want to bring our troops home even sooner than the rest of us.
Why are George Bush, Harry Reid, and Nancy Pelosi betraying our troops by forcing them to stay there forever?

I will bet money Keith Olberman of MSNBC talks about it 8pm Monday.
But otherwise I am sure you are correct that no one else will mention it on the major networks.
23+41=64% of respondents say bring them home.
Well, Congress, what are you waiting for?
exactly
they seriously just need to send them home my fiance is over there...
Bring them home NOW !!!!!
Its such a shame when you think of the lives lost the money wasted and as we speak they are still in the process of all mentioned ,besides buiding a dozen or so milatary bases at another huge cost to the Americian tax payers . So I guess some of these "we must stay and finish the job" are talking about the job of building the bases and not just walking away from our buildings and fancy embassies ,well if we stay we will just be throwibng more $ and even more importantly lives down the drain ! So I say to hell wit the material things we started and have not finished yet ,leave them to the Iraqies ,perhaps they can use them as hospitals for the thousands of wounded and premanently disabled as a result of our predidents illegal war ! What scares me the most is that a repug will win the Pesidential election in 08 and we will continue our milatary build up the stupid "war" !
Take Care Nick
What disturbs me about this
What disturbs me about this truth, is the area polled is where I live, and "served" by D. Feinstein (D), a warmonger, who admitted illegally obtaining Billions$ of war contracts for her husband's companies, half IS hers, CA is 50/50 law! The LA Times ignores that scandel!
She repeatedly supports every stupid move Bush makes, and of course, is no longer worried about re-election, like the rest of the conspirators, she will never have to worry about working again on the war money already made! She ignores my argument letters to her standard form letter against impeachment, and she has a lot at stake. If we start impeaching and pressing charges on criminal politicians, SHE GOES DOWN!
I seriously question what carrot is dangling in front of Pelosi to procure her support, as her before Speaker convictions are certainly wavering!
I agree!!! We need our troops home,when they said.NOW!!!
