Reply #6: good for Kerry

I agree with his prescription (edit: most of his prescription) for the withdrawal of our troops. But, I think he uses politically correct language when he describes the 'soldiers who believe in their mission', and when he said, " . . . we're talking about how to win, how to succeed, how to best achieve our goals. That's the choice here." That's what he said.

I don't know what he means by 'win' in Iraq. It may be politically necessary to make the republicans believe they have won in Iraq to get them to leave, but it is, I believe, dishonest to describe anything the U.S. has done in Iraq and anything we may do in the future, including the withdrawal of our troops, as a 'win'.
