Reply #8: This was a disingenuous question ... He asked would they 'guarantee...'

Timmy asked each of them if they would 'guarantee' the American people that all the troops would be out of Iraq by the end of their first term.

They each stated that no one knows what the dynamics will be 5 yrs from now.

Edwards actually said he would bring the combat troops home, and he thought we would have to keep some soldiers there to guard the US Embassy. That is not the same thing as saying 'Edwards will have troops in Iraq in 2013' as you state in your post.
