Maybe start with reducing the troops in Afghanistan to pre-Obama numbers - as strange as that sounds.
Now, in next 60 days. Not by end of year, then oh - wait, a few thousand will have to stay a few months longer. No. Chew on this exit strategy- start NOW.

I know, I know, Obama said in campaign he would increase troop deployment in Afghanistan to complete job. Well, he has broken a few campaign promises - I suspect we won't be too upset if he backs off this one. Job incomplete? Eh - he pulls them out, all is forgiven.

Since we burned the part of the kitchen that cooks jobs and and remodeling will take awhile, why not concentrate on some massive reduction of troops deployed in war zones?
That would at least give us some cash on hand to deal with all our domestic issues.
Not to mention a relief of seeing pictures of America's finest young men and women listed as deceased in local papers.
With all the economic insanity spreading on a daily basis PLEASE.
Enact a move that will bring stability to OUR region.
Bring them home.
