Rep. King: Don't pull Iraq "plug," or "pull away"...
Rep. Peter King’s trip to Iraq and Afghanistan included meeting with diplomats, U.S. troops and senior military commander Lt. Gen. Ray Odierno. His assessment so far: “Progress continues to be made, and I think it would be irresponsible for us to pull away or pull the plug, and the consequences that would have on Iraq, on the Middle East and on the United States and the war against terrorism…would be extraordinary.” King (R-Seaford) checked in, along with fellow travelers House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-OH) and Rep. Pete Hoekstra (R-MI), during a teleconference call with reporters Wednesday. Full transcript here.
