Vlad, ole boy, about the same time that Russia withdraws from Chechnya. I hope we stay in Iraq for as long as we've stayed in Germany and Japan. It's now time to ramp up to 1991 levels and change regimes in Iran and Syria.

Putin said. "Many Iraqis, we know this well, still consider these forces to be occupiers."

Before the usual suspects come to tell us that Putin is our friend, just let me say the man is, as always, a class "A" sonuvab*tch.

The statement above is out of line, uninformed, and complete bullsh*t. Eff Putin and the sickle he rode in on.

sorry pooty, but a timetable is *exactly* the wrong way to go about it. it would actually be the easy way out for us, because the insurgents would hold off a bit on attacking us, then try to take over. what makes more sense is for the US presence to slowly disappear as the Iraqi forces grow stronger, but the insurgents never actually know if we are still there or not...

Putin should help out in Iraq and encourage "unwilling" countries to help the US finish off the insurgency in Iraq, so we can all get the hell out of there.
Likewise, if the Democrats want US troops out of Iraq soon then they had better support the President and the fragile democracy in Iraq.

Putin couldn't fight his way out of a wet paper bag without the U.S. there to help, so stuff it, as we American's say....

Funny how things change. From before 9/11 when muslim was so much our problem.

WASHINGTON, Jan 25, 2001 -- (Reuters) U.S. President George W. Bush's administration Wednesday delivered tough, opening remarks on Russia's bloody campaign against separatists in Chechnya, calling for a political settlement to the conflict and citing "credible" reports of Russian abuses of civilians. Echoing the position of the last administration, State Department spokesman Richard Boucher said, "We continue to believe that the only way to bring about lasting peace and stability in the region is to begin a dialogue that will lead to a political settlement." This should be done "in parallel with serious steps to address the socio-economic roots of the conflict," he added.

"Not this time: in fore I won't allow him to get away with this; he has forgotten there are people who have not only great memory but inside information; has he forgotten old good days with Brezniev? Or maybe his special enrollment in Afghanistan and clean up in KGB; or 1980 has slipped his mind; let me go further 1981 internal struggle within KGB it self; he is last one who should talk and criticize United States. "

It is beginning to openly verge on treason.

The leadership of the Democrat Party isn't VERGING on treason it has run full tilt for it. The whole reason this "go slow on Iran" is because treasonous Clintonites at CIA leak "reports" that "prove" to the Dinosaur Media that Iran isn't any where near getting a nuke. Funny how the CIA, the black beast of the Fed Govt to the Left all during the Cold War, is now sited regularly as their favorite source. We are having our hands tied by traitors like Sen. Joe Biden who run around screaming every anti-American lie fed to them by their Socialist European buddies. What I use to think was just short sightedness on the Dems side has now spilled over into open treason. Their political grandstanding is now limiting what political consensus can be built to defend American interests. It might be different if they offered alternative ideas but they don't. All they do is scream opposition to what WE are doing. That is crippling the war effort and THAT IS TREASON.

That's fine. Let him figure out the timetable for withdrawal of the Russian troops that are in Iraq! He can shut up about any other country's troops however.

How nice of the Communists to line up and make our job easier. We should always link them to the anti war protestors they so openly support.

Putin-go to hell. We're still waiting for you to hunt down and destroy the psycho SOB's who tortured and killed the children, parents and teachers at your elementary school last year. Thanks for the advice...
