Looks like no one can blame Obama for it either, as this is what Iraq wants. Its definitely best for our country financially if we start withdrawing from Iraq relatively soon.

That was the Bush plan... so no.  I don't see how you could blame Obama for it.

It's not surprising.

The negotiations and plans were basically decided back when Obama and McCain were neck and neck. 

They were just argueing about US immunity and how much immunity troops would have for crimes they comit.

I mentioned it like months ago. 

Honestly i expected Bush to push it through before the election to take the wind out of Obama's sails.  Then again the media might of took it as a bad thing.

The only difference really is that the dates are "set in" rather then scalable. Which was kind of a silly argument anyway... since "set" dates can be changed.  Though having to change "set" dates does make you look a little worse.

The dates remain uncharnged though.  Pullout in 2011.
