U.S. Involved in Iraq Longer Than WWII

This AP article points out that we’ve now been involved in Iraq longer than we were involved in :

the Vietnam War (eight years, five months)

the Revolutionary War (six years, nine months)

and the Civil War (four years)

Consider this, then. In the American Revolution, we were overthrowing a monarchy, declaring independence, and bringing forth a new form of government. Not unlike what has happened in Iraq. True?

It’s also interesting to note that, if you ask the troops, more are saying that we should stay there than are saying we should get out. Who should we listen to? The boots on the ground, or the suits in DC?
