Military families call on Bush for strategy

Members of the recently formed Colorado Chapter of Military Families is holding a press conference this morning to call on President Bush to explain his exit strategy for U.S. troops in Iraq.

"We are calling on him to meet with us and articulate his exit strategy for bringing the troops home now," said Pamela Osborn, a speaker at the event.

The President will be in Colorado on Friday and the group would like to meet with him, Osborn said.

1. Oh jeez, are these people not paying attention? I feel so sorry
for them. But there will never be an 'exit strategy'. The only way we'll leave there is if/when we're run out like we were in Viet Nam.
