Joe Biden discusses Iraq with elementary school class

Joe Biden, Democratic presidential candidate, discussed Iraq and Afghanistan with elementary school children. He remarked that President George W. Bush was "confused" when he decided to invade Iraq.

The Delaware senator encountered the group in the lobby of the New Hampshire statehouse on his way to filing his candidacy with the secretary of state's office, and gave a detailed answer to a question adults don't often ask candidates: How did the war in Iraq start?

Biden compared the war in Iraq with the invasion of Afghanistan.

Comments from the Owner: It always amazes me when we find a candidate that can read the mind of other people. I wonder if Senator Biden was "Confused" when he made these statements.

Richardson discusses troops in Iraq and aid to veterans

By JON ERICSON, Courier Staff Writer

WATERLOO --- In a campaign stop at Sullivan Brothers Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 1623 in Waterloo, Bill Richardson pledged to end the war in Iraq while promising a litany of benefits for veterans.

Richardson, a Democrat candidate for president, told the crowd he would call for an immediate withdraw of troops in Iraq if he were elected.

"The first thing I would do as president is get all of our troops out of Iraq. That's all of the troops with no residual forces," Richardson said.

Richardson said Iraq isn't helpless and troops could be withdrawn all at once. He said the country has a 400,000-man strong security force, trillions in oil reserves and a government in place and they should be able to fend for themselves.

(CBS/AP) Congress should continue to push for the withdrawal of troops from Iraq regardless of what top military advisers say in their progress report next month, Democratic presidential hopeful John Edwards said Sunday on Face The Nation.

"I think they should not submit a single funding bill to the president for the war that doesn't have a timetable for withdrawal," Edwards told Bob Schieffer. "And I think they should use whatever legislative tool is available to them, including filibuster."

DUBUQUE, Iowa -- Illinois Sen. Barack Obama on Saturday said the U.S. will have to withdraw its troops from Iraq, regardless of the costs, if serious reforms are not made by the Iraqi government.

"In the absence of those conditions we're just throwing money away," Obama said during a campaign stop in Dubuque.

"We have to be honest that, in the absence of these changes, if these changes aren't made, there is not much we can do" to help the Iraqi people, he added.

Owners Comments: I think all of the Democrat Canidate are now in complete agreement that we should "CUT AND RUN" in Iraq. It is easy to understand why the Terrorists were supporting Kerry in the last Presidential election and the Democrats in the 06 midterm elections. It's a farily safe bet that if one of these Democrat Frontrunners are actually elected President that Terrorism will return to American shores after Jan 20th 2009.

In Congress, Opposing the War but Doing Nothing to Stop It

by Ron Paul

This grand debate is welcomed but it could be that this is nothing more than a distraction from the dangerous military confrontation approaching with Iran and supported by many in leadership on both sides of the aisle.

This resolution, unfortunately, does not address the disaster in Iraq. Instead, it seeks to appear opposed to the war while at the same time offering no change of the status quo in Iraq. As such, it is not actually a vote against a troop surge. A real vote against a troop surge is a vote against the coming supplemental appropriation that finances it. I hope all of my colleagues who vote against the surge today will vote against the budgetary surge when it really counts: when we vote on the supplemental.

Clinton Promises to End War if Elected

Clinton Promises to End War if Elected

By NEDRA PICKLER

WASHINGTON (AP) - Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton said Friday she would not have attacked Iraq if she were president in 2002 and would end the war if elected, as she tried to blunt rivals like John Edwards who are stoking anti-war passions in the Democratic Party.

Clinton, raising her voice at one point to be heard above anti-war hecklers, suggested that calls from Edwards and others to cut off funding for President Bush's troop increase are unlikely to win approval in a narrowly divided Senate.
