Put a fork in it. It's done and finally out in the open.

Nah, this is just like week 2 of the war - it's "quagmire city" time. We may be no more in a quagmire in terms of Iraq now than we were then. TWT.

Most of the trouble is localized to the Sunni Triangle, the Iraqis do not support foreign fedayeen in their country sabotaging their infrastructure (and they now have a free press to tell them about it), and Coalition troops keep catching the Ba'athists who are funding this. Plus fall is coming, and it will get cooler.

I'm not saying everything's great, but it's far to soon to be yelling failure either, imo. Wait a year and say then.
