?Our choice is between immediate invasion and doing nothing.?


Steve, you know we have 200,000 plus troops on the ground. If we "March them back down the Hill" we will effectively have given in to Saddam. He can continue to "rope a dope" as he did after Clinton's failure to deal with him in '98. Plus we will have proved to the world we have no staying power. We have a History of running in FA. Lebanon, Somalia, the Cole, the Embassies, etc.

So I don't think this proposition is so far out of line.
