“This is the longest war in the history of the United States of America. The Afghani government is mostly corrupt. War in Afghanistan has tested the resolve, capabilities, and strength of the allied military forces. Moreover, our efforts at nation building have largely failed.” Congressman Jason Chaffetz, UT

“After nearly 10 years of fighting, the progress in Afghanistan has been diminutive and alienated the peoples of Afghanistan. This failed strategy is not worth one more drop of American blood. I believe that if we are going to leave, we should leave; otherwise we are doing a great disservice to those soldiers who continue to fight and American families at home who will continue to suffer the loss of their loved ones.

Furthermore, The current centralized government system and the regime of Hamid Karzai is hopelessly corrupt and not representative of the Afghan peoples.” Congressman Dana Rohrabacher, CA

February 2012, I sent a letter to the President, signed by 87 bipartisan Members of Congress to accelerate the withdrawl of our troops from Afghanistan by the end of next year. "I believe it’s time to end this war and bring our brave servicemembers home." Congresswoman Lois Capps, CA

"I can't find a whole lot right about what's happening in Afghanistan," Congressman Bill Young, FL

“Our soldiers and their families shouldn't be the only ones sacrificing for these efforts, and that's a large part of why I will continue to push for the immediate return of our troops.” Congressman Chris Murphy, CT

“Through fiscal year 2012, the United States has spent more than $549.5 billion, and the war effort will cost another $88 billion in fiscal year 2012.” A better solution is available — "to get our troops the hell out of there. The real solution, is staring us in the face." Congressman James P Moran, VA

“At a time when we have so many of our own infrastructure needs and budgetary challenges here at home, we cannot afford to be in the business of nation-building in places like Afghanistan. “ Congressman John Carney, DE

American soldiers are dying in Afghanistan on average 31 a month or one per day. Our brave men and women are not disposable commodities. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! Help us get them all home – Alive would be best – the sooner the better!
