I'm pretty confident we'll be able to pull out of Iraq sooner than one might think. Also, I'm also hoping that a war with Iran can be avoided. But if they act on Israel, things can get hairy. Our economy is in trouble, and we don't need to continue funding wars while that's happening, that much I'm sure of.
