HBO & Jim Risch — Questions 16-20
15. How long should we remain in Iraq?
JR: I'm like every other American. I'm impatient and I want that matter resolved. We've been very generous to that country. And it's important that the Iraqi people step up and do what they must to take control of their own country. I do not support a date-certain withdrawal. Nor do I support a withdrawal that will endanger our military troops or people in Iraq who have supported our military troops. Within those parameters, I want us out as soon as possible.
