they dont have bradleys or radios that can call in jets and gunships and tomahawks and lasers.

What about sharks with fricken lasers?

Eh...  at this point, the whole Iraq thing just bores me.  We're not getting out, regardless of who enters office.

Oh well, at least things aren't as fucked now as they were a year or two ago.

We're going to get out, we've been arguing over how.
 
I don't think presidential candidates (or who wins) has any bearing on it. Neither of them wants to keep combat troops there forever. And I don't think that if Obama won the election he would be stupid enough to just pull troops precipitously for some quick popularity gain, either. I'd hope he would listen to the experts (Petraeus?) and honor whatever is agreed to with Maliki.

Sounds an awful lot like a withdrawal timetable. 


Oh yeah, now it's called a withdrawal horizon.

We wont pull out, for the next 10yrs there will be American troops their in one capacity or another.

is this really something laugh about?

Well... no, he was referring to the fact that after the righties said "no timetables blah blah blah democrats are weak" now, (with an election in November, too!  how convenient) this happens and they're saying it's a horizon whatever.  so ya I can laugh at that.
