For my article i chose a peice from the New York times. In the author argues how hopeless the war in iraq is. He explains how president Bush or the GOP nominee John McCain have not come up with solid plans for removal from Iraq. He says that both have hopeless dreams of winning a war that can't be one, citing that the US does not have enough troops to back up their hopes. he also argues that the Iraqi government is also growing tired of US occupation and wishes the US would simply pack up and leave. He also argues that barack Obamas plan for Iraq is sensable and that removing troops from Iraq qill help with the growing need of Troops in Afaganistan.
While i would love to tell this guy of in this BLog i think that will have to wait. My chosen topic for Unit 1 is the War Policy of the 2008 canadites because i believe it is one of if not the most important issue at hand. Not because of the length for which the war has spanned but because the war in Iraq is the first thing the new president will ineviatbly have to deal with.

I agree with you that the war in Iraq is a more issue in this election. No matter who gets elected they will have to deal with the war and ultimately make a decision on what is going to happen in the future in the country and put it into effect once they get into office.
