There you have it. This poll puts it right out on the table for the first time. A stunning majority of "our troops" fighting in Iraq believe we should leave, sooner rather than later. This new fact requires that those in Congress and the media factor this into all future statements and discussions about the conduct of this war. They are now ethically and morally required to factor these poll results into the debate over our military presence in Iraq. Three quarters of our troops on the ground say we should leave, either immediately or within the year.
What that means is that no one, not the President, not any member of Congress, should be allowed to use the term, "support our troops," without being required to explain precisely what he or she means by that, in light of this poll. |
