Former vice presidential candidate John Edwards said today that the United States should begin pulling troops out of Iraq immediately.
Edwards, who may run again for the Democratic presidential nomination, was in Moultonboro (New Hampshire), campaigning for state Senator David Gottesman.
Edwards says the U.S. should make it clear to the Iraqis that the Americans are leaving and the best way to do that is to begin removing troops.
He called for a complete withdrawal within a year to 18 months.
Edwards also said Israel had the right to defend itself against the Hezbollah but said there needs to be an international security force placed in southern Lebanon.

I have a strange feeling that Edwards will be the dem nominee in 08'. I don't think he'll win the WH, but I do think he is quite capable of winning their nomination.

Oh, OK, that'll do it for me. Pretty boy says we should leave, so I guess we'll just have to "Go now, go now" (Moody Blues)
I like taking all my advice from personal injury attorneys. They're such nice, good people.
