Think of all the innocent civilians that have died BECAUSE of our invasion...close to 80,000. If we pull out now, Americans won't die. If we don't, Americans AND Iraqis will die. Which would you prefer? Personally, I'd prefer neither. Democracy can't be forced on a country at gun point.
I totally agree. Pull the troops out NOW - no hesitation and pull them ALL out. NOW!!!! Sure there's all kinds of predictions, but those are coming from the same exact people who 1.)lied about WMD and 2.)got every prediction wrong (such as "We'll be greeted as liberators.") TROOPS OUT NOW!!!
What...? Edwards, Guilani, Clinton, Obama, Bush, Thompson, and McCain are all members of the Council on Foreign Relations. The CFR has the stated goal to destroy America by first eliminating the borders (already in progress). They believe, not "in the Nation." They all represent the same elites that are ruining our Nation right now. DON'T BE FOOLED BY THE INTER AND INTRA PARTY BICKERING. THEY ARE ALL IN IT TOGETHER! The Nation is dying and we need a doctor... Ron Paul 2008!
There is no civil war. Al Queda is directly responsible for attacks on BOTH SIDES. This is a "Civil War" only in the minds of people who want the defeat of America. The plan is to fight Al Queda IN IRAQ not here, not in our streets.. Edwards is ignorant of the facts. PROOF: Sunni Leader murdered for fighting Al Queda.. and working with Shiites..
Leaving Iraq, will only strengthen the terrorists.
Al Qaeda wasn't in Iraq before we invaded. It IS a civil war as there are 2 sides fighting for control. If you think people who oppose this war want defeat for America, then you are nothing more than a neo-con tool. If you want this war to go on, grab a gun and go fight it.
At least someone telling the truth (John Edwards) and did not take us into the mystical land where 36 countries (?!?!?!) are dying along with our troops. There must be dragons and wizards helping us defeat these terrorists as well, and Gandalf is on the front lines, if you ask Bush!
Thank you Senator Edwards for giving it to us straight! You have my vote!
Being so pretty and caring so much for your Image Mr. Edwards, will only make you a media president which will never be good for the American people and that includes your family.
You libbies actually take this lying piece of shit seriously? Get real, he just tells you what you want to hear. You want to hear what a veteran of OIF thinks? I think we CAN and we MUST win this war. We have given far too much for this war to see it all lost, because some cowards want us to surrender to Al-Qaeda. Guess what liberals? these colors don't run.
You big dummy... You still don't understand Iraq and Al-Qaeda. Do some fucking research away from "fox news" and you'll learn quickly that SH and OBL did not like each other at all. We fucked up by invading an unarmed country. Or did you forget about WMD's and nukes?
Also a real American would be ashamed that thousands have died and we still haven't caught Bin Laden. I mean WTF? Why is Iraq important? Because we made it important. It was not a threat to any of us.
That is the same argument that the dems used to get 58 thousand troops killed in Vietnam. If we don't have the troops we need to actually win this thing what makes you sure that Iraq will end up any different than Vietnam? How many troops have to die in this war before we admit we are not winning?
I don't like to play with my own children and I am certainly not going to play with someone else's. If you ever reach a point when you can organize your thoughts and create meaningful sentences without resorting to ad hominum attacks reply to my comments until then play with someone else.
You say... String together and intelligent comment and prove it. PS your fascination with gays is somewhat telling to someone with my background in psychology.
Not to mention the apostrophe actually goes between the n and the t in don't. You seem to have a problem with English. My french is not so good but you might give it a shot.
I french is your language why did you try to pretend you speak english when you don't? I stand by my statement that until you can organize your thoughts and present them in a manner you would expect from and adult you are wasting my time. I am not impressed with your homepage because it is easy for anonymous people to say stupid things when people like me actually make videos and are ready to defend them.
After watching Bush's Alice in Wonderland speech, this response by Edwards was a refreshing return to sanity and reality. Edwards speaks for all Americans who want the disastrous occupation of Iraq ended and our troops brought home. By speaking up for us, Edwards shows himself to be a leader unafraid to lead and a fighter unafraid to speak the truth. We sure need someone like that about now.
At least someone told the truth tonight (John Edwards) and did not take us into the mystical land where 36 countries (?!?!?!) are dying along with our troops. There must be dragons and wizards helping us defeat these terrorists as well, and Gandalf is on the front lines, if you ask Bush!
Thank you Senator Edwards for giving it to us straight! You have my vote!
SO sick of these fuckers blaming Iraqi leaders for not being able to immediately clean up the utter decimation of Mesopotamia proper by OUR leaders, who they supported. Thousands of years of history & religion & culture gone, none of which these bastards studied or even cared about until after we invaded and put all their - THEIR - resources up for grabs. John Edwards is guilty. All the dead Iraqis & Americans should haunt him.
By all means, we need a Marshall plan for Iraq -- but that is ANOTHER ad. Bush was the one who f-ed up. YES, Powell misled. Edwards voted wrong and apologized. It no doubt haunts him. BUT the insurgency causes bloodshed on BOTH sides. End the illegal occupation -- surge our troops HOME.
We know what congress needs to do. Joe Biden says he'll continue to fund the war because he wants to protect the troops. Many other democrats feel that way. As long as we have democrats willing to fund the war, our soldiers are stuck there. And depending on who gets into office in 09, for years to come.
american do you even realize what you mean when you say 'our troops'? the other day on the news i saw this 18 year old who did not at all look like he was a man yet, with his face covered in bandages because a bomb blew up near him... for the love of god/humanity think about what you're doing.
Good riddance to this leftist trash...
Moral pomposity with gobs of cash in his possession...but exhorting everyone to "sacrifice" ..
What a bum!

There is nothing quite like hearing a soldier talking
down to us for using our freedom of speech which is
one of the freedom's were fighting for. Was just
discussing with my Grandfather (a Korean Vet) how
disrespectful a lot of the soldiers have been
during this thing to the American people expressing
our opinions (not spitting on them like the hippies
did)and to the civilian Iraqi's. In his words-
"just disgraceful."
