Senate vote was 93-6 on end of war by 2007.

Kerry and only 5 other Democrats voted for a end to war by year end 2006, the debate was ended, Republicans don't even want debate on the issue, they want silence.
Republicans in the Ohio House don't get it. Republicans in the Federal Congress don't get it. Iraq was a mistake form the start and 75 percent of Americans agree. Republicans will never admit to being wrong, that is a fundamental part of being Republican. This mistake cost Working Class tax payers over $ 2 trillion over the next ten years, above that Tax payers have lost over 2500 brave Americans and tax payers have over 15,000 wounded. The Republican always sends others to do their dirty work and ask others to pay for their mistakes.
If you have never been in war then you know nothing about war. They don't get it. They never will get it. Never. War is hell, war is about killing. Our service people do the job, they follow orders.
This is what all Republicans don't get. What Republicans will never talk about. Why the Republicans are wrong. A terrorist will never fight our Service men face to face, a terrorist does his dirty work behind our backs. Why would you think a terrorist would fight our service men in Iraq? Why do you think a terrorist would dare come to America and face any American in a face to face fair fight? Are you really that stupid?
In Vietnam we lost 58,000 brave Americans because of the same stupidity. gorilla warfare can not be won, over time Russia learned this in Afghanistan, how many died?
Republicans like to say “Democrats” started the Vietnam war, which is a lie. The CIA was caught in the act. That is fact.
Republicans also like to say “more people died in Columbus Ohio last year then in Iraq”. Or “more people die from car accidents then in Iraq”. They don't get it. One is too many. One.
If we did not invade Iraq and occupy that country one service person would not have died there because of your mistake.
This is the choice every American must make. Stay 30 years, leave now. Of course i don't mean tell the enemy when you will leave, only a idiot like DeWine, who knows nothing about war would be that stupid. I do mean withdraw to a safe distance. strike when needed and fall back, that is exactly what we should do. That is what Senator John Kerry supports. That is what Congressmen Murtha supports, they know war.

Republicans, skip the Country Club lunch today, miss a day of gulf, read the link below and tell Americans the truth. I read it in 5 mins. I also found it very easy to comprehend. You may need a whole day for comprehension.
It's the Congressional record, Of August 6-7, 1964. page 18132-33. Read the words by the Democrats, Mr. Gruening and Democrat Mr. Morse several times if needed.
