Or we can leave the nation of Iraq to an Iranian style theocracy that will ensure a race war between the Shiites, Sunnis and Kurds.
Great Idea, Harmless Rabbit. You make me believe more and more that Coulter was correct when she said liberals always go against America's best interests.

I agree with what you say, but not because saddam would come back into power or the taliban would supposedly take control, but because of many different reasons...
First let me say that I hate war, the only difference between you and the people you're fighting against is the geography they were born in. Now that being said, President Bush might have dragged the American image through the mud with this war, but imagine how we would look if all the peace keeping forces we have in Iraq were suddenly wisked away without leaving any sort of government structure behind after we nearly destroyed every bit of their old way of life. Do you think the Iraqis would be any better off now?
Whether we want it or not, Bush has left us a mess to clean up that will take more than 10 years to fix. If we pull out now we will only hurt Iraq more and even further damage our credibility and our percieved abilty to follow through with our goals.
People almost always die when any major progress is involved and some extremists are resistant to it.
