The prefacing of "evidence" with the word "questionable."

You'd have to be in total denial to make that statement.

Then name the exit strategy. Pull out with our tail between our legs? Impeach Bush, put Saddam back in power, and tell the whole world, "Sorry, we goofed"? Put a Democrat in power and take credit for all of the future good that occurs without Saddam?

I think the only exit strategy is to internationalize the effort, through the UN or Nato, and to share decision making with the countries that participate, proportionally with the degree to which they make a contribution. The REAL coalition's purpose should be to hand government back to the Iraqis. The problem is, I am not sure that "democracy" is sustainable in countries such as Iraq. Unfortunately the administration has been very obstinate on running the show alone, this even in the face of strong calls from within its own party. I can understand that. Bush would have to go back to institutions he has derided during his careless run up to the war.
