I think you're probably right. Bush already had a deal in place to withdraw all troops by end of 2011 (conditions based), Obama is drawing down all but 3K.

How much money will be saved from next years budget? I expect Obama will take the credit and the mob will forget he is a war president by choice for 3 years.

Well, I always thought we should have kept 1 big Air Base in Irbil or Sulamaniya. Most Americans don't know this but up in the Kurdish regions we can take off our body armor, put away the long guns and actually go downtown. Just about the same as any European town.

So it seems Obama's about to announce all troops out of Iraq by the end of the year, full withdrawal...save for a few who will stay at the Embassy

Great news...I also hear he is going to announce it on an air craft carrier wearing top gun gear with a banner that reads "Iraqi Mission Withdrawn. Bin Laden Killed, Justice Done. Qaddafi Gone. America, Fck Yeah! Vote Obama 2012." in the background.

The plan conforms with the agreement negotiated by the George W. Bush administration to withdraw U.S. forces from Iraq at the end of 2011.
