Wow, narrow-minded and blind as well. I reread my post several times and failed to find one mention of us simply pulling out of Iraq. Sure seems to me that I instead wrote that there are folks on here that don't seem to believe the long-term effects will turn out as we desired. Never did I say that, since that is the case, we need to simply board our troop transports and hightail it out tomorrow.

Tom, that would simply be terribly immoral and I greatly resent the implication you continually make by equating doubts with a lack of international ethics. Once you've made a mess you have to work towards fixing it. It's the human thing to do and no matter how most of us feel towards people in the administration, don't you ever be deluded to think that people that are on opposite sides of issues from you aren't part of that wonderful human spirit that made our country great.
