#1 On Thursday he defended his proposal, saying Mr Howard's government had "no exit strategy" for the troops in Iraq, Australian media reported.

"We are going to be much safer as a nation if we have our troops here instead of on the other side of the world," he was quoted by Reuters news agency as saying.

However Mr Howard, a staunch supporter of the US government over the recent conflict in Iraq, condemned Mr Latham's proposal as "un-Australian" and said it sent the "wrong signals" to both its allies and the Iraqi people.

"At the moment, people should be holding firm and staying strong," he told Australian radio.

Recent opinion polls have put Mr Latham's centre-left Labor Party ahead of Mr Howard's conservative coalition.


Watch how Latham and Zapetero try to avoid followin gthe Seldon Plan. Watch how history brings them to heel regardless. I think that history would/will do the same to John Kerry.

#6 On Thursday he defended his proposal, saying Mr Howard's government had "no exit strategy"

Leftists/liberals love exit strategies, don;t they? They think it's advance strategic planning and they believe such thinking makes them look like military oriented people, when it fact it is just advanced stategic defeatism.

Leftist brand deprecating the defenses of the nation, wrapped inside of some nonsense called 'exit strategy.'.

How stoopid do you have to be to come to the conclusion to believe that killing terrorists in a military setting of our own choosing is not preferable no having the troops at home with no target rich environment.

Oh wait... They are liberals...

Nevermind...

#7 I think exit strategy is overrated. Wasn't there one for Kosovo, a number of years ago. We'll be therre longer than we have been in SK.
