Out of Iraq in 2006 – Bring our troops home!
Target: U.S. SenateSponsored by: Friends of John Kerry
"Tell the truth. Fire the incompetents. Get out of Iraq. Have health care for all Americans. These are pretty simple messages, and they're worth fighting for today."
That's what John Kerry said recently when he appeared on "Meet the Press" to push our call for an exit from Iraq.
Our soldiers have done their jobs. They can't resolve political differences between Iraqis in an escalating civil war. It can't be done militarily; it can't be done from a Humvee or a helicopter. It can only be accomplished by a dramatic change of course, turning away from George W. Bush's aimless "stay for as long as it takes" approach.
We want democracy in Iraq, but it's now the job of Iraqis to build it. Our troops have performed gallantly and heroically. The best way to keep faith with our troops is to set deadlines for bringing them home and getting Iraq on its own two feet. That's the only way to give their sacrifice its best chance of resulting in success.
Join John Kerry today in calling for the withdrawal of American combat troops by the end of 2006. Sign this petition to support John KerryÂ’s Senate resolution for a timely withdrawal from Iraq.

We have sacrificed enough of our sons, and daughters, potential wives, husbands and leaders on foreign soil. We have not supported them adequately in the field or while recuperating. we CANNOT afford this war.

I think it is depressing that our country has lowered itself to forcing/ killing a bunch of people just to better another country when our own country needs help to. i believe that we come first!

The time has come to pull out. Your reputation has been tarnished already you cannot fix it especially with this "stay as long as it takes" attitude.Listen to the people you govern for once and do the right thing.

BUSH and his cohorts have all this big deal concern about abortion - what about the nearly 3,000 mothers who DIDN"T have one but BUSH eliminated their children anyway ?

This isn't that you have a paper due tomorrow and you haven't even started the research so you hope some miracle will resolve your dilemma. No policy is a horrific policy in war. Realize that you will never run for another public position so who cares what your constituents think. Do the right thing!!! Stop the carnage of our magnificent young people. Bring US home...

So what was the point of this war? Losing innocent lives, like two of my close friends that got blown up by a Iraqi car bomb. So where are those weapons of mass destruction at anyways? Wasn't that the reason we went to war in the first place?
