I was hoping the President was going to say in his speech, that the objective in Iraq and Afghanistan is complete, and I am ordering all the troops home. Now lets have a parade.

4. Difficult, but should that even be the issue?

Of course asking it isn't impossible - we did the same thing in Vietnam, with disastrous consequences.
