The war is over in Iraq, but we’re keeping 50,000 people there? Somehow, I just don’t see how that adds up to over.

  1. This little L libertarian agrees. It ain't over until everyone is out. Look at Germany. Look at Korea. Look at the approximately 171 other places that we have troops based. Time to bring everyone home?
