I was really referring to Afghanistan but Iran or Pakistan could be
next the way we are going.
Again, what happened to the "Day one" withdrawal Obama ran on?


Day one? You were expecting he was going to end the wars on the first
day?
When did he say that? I must have missed it.

It is on You Tube. I bet it was linked here before. Something like Feb
2008.


Come on. He never said he was going to end either war on the first day as
President. That's completely loony.

He said he would start the withdrawal from Iraq on Jan 20.
It is 16 months later and the total commitment in the two wars is
higher than it was in 1q09.


Which he did. The number in Iraq is much lower. He never said he would end
the Afg. war in 18 months. In fact, he said he would escalate and fix the
situation.
