Doesn't really matter what Bush did or didn't do now. It's Bambi's war. One Bush left him in pretty good shape with. The question now is, will he throw away a W, or encourage and help the democratic centerpiece in a region of theocratic thuggery? Iraq can be the Poland of the Middle East (which is pretty much what Bush was shooting for). The first domino of a rising surge for freedom.
PB, Great insight; the Poland connection, exactly true. Iraq has been another risk, to achieve long term Global stability; one democracy, maybe both achieved.

The vast Democrat MSM have won their election and don't need an Iraq Bush bash anymore for the eyes of Liberal "dim bulbs" and their associates.

The world will now roll on and hopefully the seed of democracy has taken hold. I don't think even Obama's promises to "bailout" of Iraq will stand in the face of victory. Sorry sck he can't afford to loose the liberation, already achieved; bad form politically and historically.

And to think it was all about Iraq once.

You can always hope for Afghanistan, though.

You f******* hypocrites! Any news on the quote/miss-quote?

Sck, you only quoted me, thanks! Does that mean you give up

There's a larger point though, that speaks to every nation that hopes to overthrow tyrannical rulers. Since Vietnam, the accepted knowledge is that once the going gets tough, America bails out. That one doesn't have to win on the field of battle, but in the Halls of Congress. That, has finally been laid to rest. Though Obama is already undermining it with his appeasement of Russia on the Eastern Europe Missile Defense Shield. I'm not sure why Russia finds a defensive system so objectionable, unless they're planning on doing something offensive. Or maybe they're afraid they'll get invaded by Poland.

Ya see sck, a debate, like a battle, requires a strategy. Tactics only work if you have a viable strategic plan and goal. Blaming Bush for everything isn't a strategy, it's only a tactic.
