Five Years Later, A Responsible Plan to End the War
Daily Kos, March 19, 2008
At Daily Kos, mcjoan writes, "Five long, disastrous years have wreaked moral, economic, and political havoc here at home, and throughout the world in an ever widening ripple. Every dollar spent on the Iraq War has an opportunity cost attached, and will continue to for as long as it goes on. And it won't be over when the last of the troops come home. Iraq will still need to be rebuilt. Many of our returned soldiers and marines will still need medical care, some for the remainder of their lives. The deferred maintenance of our nation's social and physical infrastructure will result in untold billions necessary just to catch up again.
Into this mess step Darcy Burner and her colleagues, Congressional hopefuls who are making their own contract with America, a contract in the form of A Responsible Plan to End the War in Iraq."
