Will Obama or Hillary really pull the US out of Iraq?

Question

Are they just playing politics?

Answer 1

They better ,or we here in America will see riots all over the place.

Answer 2

That is one of the biggest fairy tails being told in this election. Hillary never said she would pull the troops out. She just said she would start pulling them out. If Obama gets in he will find that he won't be able to pull them out. He will see the consequences of pulling out. Just like he said he would invade Pakistan to get Osama. He won't because he would open up a bigger can of worms. Pakistan would revolt and then nukes would get into the hands of radicals.

Answer 3

No because the way the Deocrat race is shaping up, they will lose the election.

Answer 4

i think they both wont neither one can escape the senates vote and if they were to then i dont know dont ask me

Answer 5

Obama will, not sure about Hillary. I hope obama wins, i saw him on the tv the other day when he said that al queida didnt exist until bush made them exist as a reason to invade iraq and straight away i thought i hope this guy wins..he's honest and not full of s**t like bush. He knows the troops were only sent there because bush wanted to take the oil and destroy a country for nothing. Go Obama!

Answer 6

Obama is more likely to than Hillary, he's made more of an issue of it, and does not seem to be as pragmatic about such things.  The political reality is that you don't want to lose a war on your watch.  That's why the Dems were so hot on a timetable for surrender while Bush II was still president - and why he kept vetoing it.  Hillary is politician enough to go back on her posturing to avoid such a defeat.  Obama may not be.

Answer 7

Only politics, if they really do pull out, but a bicycle because gasoline will hit 20 dollars a gallon

Answer 8

They are lying to the willfully gullible.

There is no way either of them could survive politically if they suddenly have an entire military that fees that defeat was snatched from the jaws of victory.

Another issue is that the next set of Iraqi national elections is scheduled for late 2009 - neither of them will be able to justify pulling our immediately prior to the elections.

In fact - I have noticed that both Hillary and Obama are trying to avoid the subject of Iraq entirely.

Answer 9

They are saying what they think the public wants to here. To get the votes they need. Have you ever seen one politician do everything that he said he would when he got into office?
