29. End the war, when? 2009, 2013, or 2017?
Obama and HRC have the same position on the war today but Edwards wants to end the war. He will take all the troops out except for the small number needed to protect the embassy, which we have in every country. There are other candidates who favor ending the war as well.

HRC is being as vague as possible on Iraq. "Vast reduced residual force" is a telling example. What exactly does that mean? She also talks about "determining" if there are "vital security interests"--after the blank check for her being in the WHite House for four years is signed. She should tell us before the election what exactly she wants and when she will end the war.

Sure, she does not want anything permanent. How "temporary" is is "temporary", though?
