GOP Senators: Bring Our Troops Home From Iraq!
Target: Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and GOP colleaguesSponsored by: Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and other Republican senators continue to back President Bush's plan to stay the course on his failed Iraq war strategy. But it's time to stop stalling and bring our troops home from Iraq!
At the end of July, despite the all-night effort by Democrats in the Senate to vote on the Reed-Levin troop redeployment plan -- which would begin bringing American troops home from Iraq in 120 days -- in the end, only three Republicans supported the measure.
Senator Mitch McConnell and other Republican senators need to stop obstructing the will of the American people. Tell Senator Mitch McConnell and GOP colleagues to stop obstructing change in Iraq and bring our troops home!

It is long past time for our servicemembers to be brought back home. You have the power to prevent more loss of life, to keep more families from being ripped apart by death by bringing our troops home.

This war is helps Al-Qaeda because they WANT US to fight them. It helps their recruitment worldwide, and that is their goal. We need to become smarter than they are, and stop giving them exactly what they want at the expense of the lives of our troops.

Please bring our troops home so no more people have to die in this needless war. For once in your Republican life, pay attention to what the public voted for you to do!

Plans in place are NOT working! It is time for change. Just today I heard 200 died in the dileberate bombing of a christian gathering. For What? Just to show "THEY" could murder them? Could our troops prevent it? They didn't? And they won't be able to stop it. They will just die trying and it will go on and on. It's time to change our thinking, bring home our troops, it's a smart begining of change.

We shouldn't be in Iraq at all. We were supposedly after Bin Laden and now that we've done what we supposedly set out to do; get out and get out now. There's no reason for us to be in Iraq! They resent us and are continually killing our troops. Bring them home safely now. I don't like to know family is over there or friends and know I might not ever see them again because of this stupid war.

Since there was no reason to go over there we should really start to bring our troops home. The republicans are just allowing the meaningless death of more and more people including our troops.

It is world wide understanding that the failure of the war in Irak is due to the incompetence of the american army to finish it's job. Like in every other business, politiciens messed it up. So, be honest with yourself and with the americans: BRING THE TROOPS HOME.

Enough already with the failed imperialist aggression against the people of Iraq. Not to mention the failure to protect our own young mena and women to keep them out of harm's way!! Are you all suffering from some sort of moral turpitude that you don't care about anybody except yourselves?
