The day one thing is a bunch of BS. All he claimed was he'd begin working on a withdrawal plan from day one but that it would take 16 months.

immediate withrdraw and working on withdrawl plan do not mean the same thing -

tell me why on the campaing trail he promised immediate withdraw or maybe i don't get it maybe in his book and yours immediate withdraw means 16 months but then after talking to the joint chiefs it means 19 months

to me he said what he had to say to get elected - - evey pol does this -
