No Withdrawal Before 2009
President George W. Bush indicated that a total troop withdrawal from Iraq will be left to the next President who will take office in 2009. With that tidbit of information, we have made Iraq into the quagmire of Viet Nam. The Bush Administration has no intention of total withdrawal of troops during their time in office. What does this mean? More Americans will die in Iraq (2321 confirmed dead) and nearly 17,000 injured. American money will continue to be spent. Our Marines and troops will end up serving 4 to 5 rotations in Iraq. Bush's war has caused a huge mess and it will all be dumped on the next President. Incredible.
