I agree 100 percent there appears to be a solid plan in place for success which has been executed to a great extent. The amazing thing is I have not heard any Member that has been to Iraq who disagrees with the gentleman. The only people that disagree are the people who have not taken the time and taken the effort to understand what the plan is. It sounds more like politics than planning to me. As we make this decision, it is so important that we understand the real story of Iraq and we base our opinions on facts.
