Quote of the Day

"There are people in Washington ... who never intend to withdraw military forces from Iraq and they're looking for 10, 20, 50 years in the future ... the reason that we went into Iraq was to establish a permanent military base in the Gulf region, and I have never heard any of our leaders say that they would commit themselves to the Iraqi people that 10 years from now there will be no military bases of the United States in Iraq."— former President Jimmy Carter, Feb. 3, 2006

Yes, there are those committed to permanancy. But that will only happen if Dems (particularly the next President) agrees to it.
