My life isn't better now,for reasons I can't blame on the Administration(well..maybe Arnold for gutting WC) Judging by the results in Viet Nam...We must not bail on Iraq! I grieve daily about our soldiers dying but they are our response to the terrorists in ME and other places. That it can't be cleanly accomplished doesn't discount its' merits!

Well timm, I wouldn't go so far as to state that the dems want to appease our enemies. Seems to me that both parties have been lobbied very hard by Israel to fight their proxy war so we can keep them safe from their enemies.
It's not widely reported as to what this factors into the current situation. It pains me that their security is being bought with American blood.
Both parties have been whores.
Unfortunately, diplomacy is the only way out of this, and the ones in power aren't moving in that direction. Without dialogue, nothing will be accomplished. It will be Israel calling the shots from behind the screen, US soldiers (3601 so far) coming home in boxes, and people so preoccupied with living day-to-day that no notice is taken of the real story, nor the real tragedy.
This mess will end some day, though I agree that it won't be "cleanly accomplished".
