Iraq wants us out - soon

The Iraqi government has voted for the US to be out of Iraqi cities by June 30 and completely out of the country by 2011. This is good news. Just think that several months ago, we had a major presidential candidate (John McCain) arguing that we should stay in the country for 100 years if necessary.

What's best about this new agreement is that it will be enforced even if conditions on the ground deteriorate. With an Obama administration wanting us out too, I'd say I'm cautiously hopeful that we will be out of Baghdad by the 4th of July. And what a great Independence Day that would be.

If Iraq wants us out, then we should exit our troops. I agree.
