When we went to war with Iraq the killing began and will not cease until we leave. Do not blame this war on Saddam. He didn't start it!
Remember when we left Vietnam, peace came to that country and still exists there. Let's do it again, for the sake of our military personnel and for those of our families who will follow us for years to come. It's what is best for us and Iraq.
