Edwards is for keeping troops in Iraq to fight Al Qaida-what the heck does that MEAN? Who will be doing that, how many, and for how long? Frankly, the whole thing seems like a semantic shift to me. The other day, I heard a Time reporter say that AFTER a deadline, there could be 70,000 troops left for the Al Qaida mission. That is NOT bringing troops home and NOT ending the occupation of IRaq.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
