No, we should not. I feel that we are there for a reason, even if we do not know 100% what that reason is. I'm not arrogant enough to think that I know better than our government, or that I am or should be privy to all information.

I'm not saying not to question the government. I am saying that there are certain things that we, as the public, should NOT KNOW in order to keep ourselves safe. I do not believe that we should have reporters and media in the war zone. I think it sets us up for our moves and plans of action to be made known to the enemy.

Information keeps you safe , information allows you to make opinions which play a major part in your decision making. We should know all and everything about our government,, If you value justice.. I do..I need to no..Those reporters should be on the battlefield and the news should be distributed

If we leave Iraq it will become a breeding ground for terrorists, that is what Iran would want us to do. They are a big reason for all of the violence in Iraq right now. They want to influence our elections in November, hoping for a democratic outcome. Democrats are softer on homeland security and terrorist issues. I also agree that it is much better to fight them on their territory than on ours anyday.

Well what do you consider "soft" I would call republicans soft of Homeland security Our borders aren't haven't been secure since 9-11 and we see what happened with the port deal. Also our Homeland security is directyly related to our foreign relationship, an area in which republicans haven't done so great, we internationally standing our in the worst position America has ever been in. I do aggree that it isn't right to leave Iraq now for the reason you stated. We have to see it to the end. We shouldn't be there in the first place we all know that but now we must find away to make the situation better and ensure the Uited States' Security. THROUGH DIPLOMACYThanks for your response.

Well, the minute men have been on the border for quite a while now and also they are going to build a huge wall to help on the border. Personally, I think we should put the military on the border, I agree we need to secure our borders the best we can. If illegals can enter here, so can terrorists, and that is scary.
