and overseas we goo

Once again, more troops are sent to the war. My brother just came back for leave, and now he is sent right back to Iraq even though this is his fourth time now in his three years of service. Wasn't it Obama who promised to get the troops out. He even said and I quote

"The only troops I will keep in Iraq will perform the limited missions of protecting our diplomats and carrying out targeted strikes on al Qaeda. And I will launch the diplomatic and humanitarian initiatives that are so badly needed. Let there be no doubt: I will end this war."

It seems to me that Obama has been all about getting elected, and getting attention, but has neglected to actually pay attention to the soldiers and their families. In my opinion Obama couldn't care less on how much we are spending in the war, or how many troops die there. If he did he wouldn't be sending 30,00 more.
