I agree with your overall context, but right now our troops are there. I don't support an immediate pullout, but then again I don't support a long-term commitment and nation-building either.

George Will had it right. Move our forces off-shore and use drones, intelligence, and special forces to continue fighting, while pulling out the rest. But in a nutshell, yes, our troops should come home.

BTW, I don't think Palin is a neo-con. In Alaska, she fought the big oil companies for a bigger share of revenue for her people. She opposes corporatism, and she's pro-energy and has mentioned that we don't need to keep getting involved in the ME when we have our own energy supplies here.
