It's nearing an end

But will it be the end?

Supposedly most of our troops will leave Iraq next month. What will Obama say when it's over?  Here's what Bush said when it started, "This will not be a campaign of half measures and we will accept no outcome but victory." It was certainly not a campaign of half measures - almost 4,500 American troops dead, 32,000 wounded, almost $1 trillion spent. And the costs will continue for decades. Just consider the number of veterans with PTSD or the number of suicides. In the past two years the VA's crisis line has received over 500,000 calls.

I'll never see the end. Will my grandchildren?
