A new poll continues to show that Americans are sick and tired of Iraq, and agree with Obama's position:
Americans are more upbeat about U.S. prospects in Iraq than at any time in the past five years, but nearly two-thirds continue to believe the war is not worth fighting and 70 percent say President-elect Barack Obama should fulfill his campaign promise to withdraw U.S. forces from the country within 16 months, according to a new Washington Post-ABC News poll.I think Americans reached their limit on Iraq a long time ago. Past that point, it no longer mattered how we were doing. And the economic crisis only made things worse - people don't want to fight a two-front war of "where are we're more screwed." Though, we're still seeing that wonderful American bipolar view of foreign policy - I hate the war, we need to pull out, but not quite yet.
[T]here is some division about how quickly he should move on that promise. A majority of those who say the war is not worth its costs want Obama to focus on the pullout immediately, while those who support the war think he should move more slowly, if at all.Make up your minds, people.
