There is a reason to be in Iraq. Thats so we cna fight the terrorism in thier country now that its liberated. We like to help the little guy. Contrary to popular belief we dont get our oil from any country that is mad at us.The reason the gas price is so high is because of the cost that is inqured in defense spending that the ( excuse me for this) fucking liberals voted be taken off when Clinton was president.
You know what makes me mad?

but the ramifications of us pulling out would only worsen the problem of terror that awaits to worsen in our country
Years ago, we fought the same battle.
Do you know who Oliver North is? or was? is he still ticking?

shit must have pressed a button by mistake and it sent
anyway he asked the US government for more protection and senator AL GORE sais there was no such problem and that Oliver North was nuts.....
If we would have done this years ago, like suggested by Oliver North it would have been simpler. But a few years later Clinton came in, and 21 americans died, and clinton pulled us right the fuck out.
So we ran scared.
time to tell them we arent scared.
And they have to stop.
