"US troops withdrawing en mass from Haiti"

This article was in the Yahoo news today. I was just looking through to see what to do my blog on today, see if anything interesting was on that I could talk about. I saw this article and I stopped looking right there. I immediately opened up the article and started reading. As I read on and on I became angry with the whole article. We are pulling out so fast and so soon after the earthquake. The interviews with some of the Haiti residents said that they were happy with us helping and wished we could stay. We can stay in Iraq though, even when they are still attacking us becuase they want us to leave. I believe this is so stupid. We will stay where we are not wanted, but scram where we are needed. At the end of the article a person left a comment that said, "How can we get out so fast here, no oil?" These made me smile. I think the reason for the smile is becuase I think it's true. There is nothing there that we want or need, so we can just get up and leave. My own opinion is that we should stay. We are doing a good thing. We are helping clean the place up and keeping crowd control. This is just another example of the US prioritizing. We would wrather help ourselfs then others. We come off as a nice country but when it comes down to it, we stay where thier is something we want.
