    and i really don't feel like writing a lengthy response right now, just suffice to say i disagree with just about everything in your post minus the fact that the wmd intel was wrong.
    I don't see any alternative to leaving Iraq in shambles. This has never been a natural country. It required the iron fist of Saddam Hussein to hold it together and make it "functional." We have removed the iron fist, and we don't have the backbone to make this part of our colonial empire. Whenever we leave this place will devolve into civil war. It is inevitable. We broke Humpty Dumpty, and there is NO WAY to put it back together.

    Re: Iraq is slipping fast

    and any republican will be too proud to admit that and will continue sending thousands of troops to their deaths as well as hundreds of thousands of civilians. And any democrat who tries to take the troops out will be called a "traitor" who "lost" us the war by republicans. Which is sad that the one who takes troops out of a failed war will be branded the "loser" by the republicans, and not the guy who failed in the first place.

    <sarcasm>I COMPLETELY AGREE. I was just telling someone the other day how much more functional and held together Europe would be if we wouldn't have intervened with the Nazis. Those guys had an iron fist that could sure hold back its enemies. I mean seriously, after we left Europe was in shambles and there was no way it would come back together again.</sarcasm>

    Yes, we need John McCain as president because the democrapic choices would betray our country. Very, very good point.

    Please explain then what a functional government in Iraq would look like? How would it be structured? How would it be "elected"?

    The fact that those questions don't have a historical example other than violent takeover means...

    TO DESCRIBE IN DETAIL every possible SUCCESS even hinted at in either Iraq or Afghanistan.
    And every woven word of every shallow sentence would have been BROADCAST by every major media network for every interested American to view and consider.
    But even YOUR village idiot in the oval office knows that pigs can't fly with witnesses watching.

    But perhaps YOU would care to list EACH AND EVERY SUCCESS in Iraq and Afghanistan that little george has failed to PROCLAIM and REPEAT AT WHIM...... Despite his more than ample opportunities to do so on a regular/even daily basis.

    Please allow me to help YOU with the first significant words of any significant reply YOU may opt to author..

    The following is a list of each and every little george Success in Iraq and Afghanistan that has DIRECTLY BENEFITTED AMERICA AS A NATION, AND ANY MAJORITY OF ITS CITIZENS/TAXPAYERS.
    It is MY honest opinion that any rational American will quickly and easily conclude (after finally learning about this long list of SUCCESS) that the BILLIONS spent, the thousands of American lives lost, and the tens of thousands of Americans wounded and forever maimed...... Is well worth the cost.

    SUCCESS #1 _______________
    SUCCESS #2 _______________
    And so forth......

    I'll now await YOUR reply......
    Unless YOU were "just spittin' out words to see where they land"......
    And assuming that no one would notice how close they might come to, and/or line YOUR personal pockets?

    YOUR TURN......
    It has now been 17 dawg days......
    Since I authored the above challenge to any of the little george/Iraq War faithful who routinely haunt this board with their jerkwater jingoism.

    And not so much as a SUCCESS #1____________ even suggested in reply for consideration.

    MY CONCLUSION......
    All the dawgs who still support America's illegal and costly and immoral little george/big dick OIL WAR in Iraq will continue to do so......
    And prove once again that the fierce fervor of subjective man has no need of fact to interrupt folly.

    Goodnight.
    I know that you believe you understand what you think I said...... But I am not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.
