Poll: Americans Overwhelmingly Approve Obama's Iraq Plan
A new CNN poll finds widespread approval for President Obama's Iraq withdrawal plan.
The question: "Barack Obama has announced that he will remove most U.S. troops from Iraq by August of next year but keep 35,000 to 50,000 troops in that country longer than that. Do you favor or oppose this plan?"
Those who favor the plan come in at 70%, with only 29% opposing it.
The data released so far doesn't tell us how many people oppose it from the right for withdrawing troops from Iraq, and how many oppose it from the left for not going far enough. Then again, the makeup of the opposition doesn't appear to be much of a concern if it's only at 29%.

wheres the outrage for 1 million dead innocent iraqis?
the 100, 000 injured(mentally ill) soldiers?
the 10,000 (the real number) dead soldiers?
the 3 TRILLION dollars this will cost?
mass murderers like bush running around free?
this means nothing.
if the economy were not in the tank..obama would not be taking anyone out of iraq.
he has shown himself to be every bit the war monger as bush.
in fact worse..cause bush never was forced to back down like obama already has, over policy.

Silly rabbit.
If you'd been paying attention, you'd know that Obama has never been "anti-war". He publicly stated he is "anti-dumb-war".

JadeZ, you have enough outrage for all of us. Maybe you'd be taken more seriously if you didn't give everything the Lou Dobbs treatment.
"My French fries are too salty. It's an outrage!"
"I got newsprint on my fingers. Call the police!"
"My eggs were medium-boiled instead of soft-boiled. I'll torch this place."
"Spouse left the top off the toothpaste. I want a divorce!"
