re: I never said I wanted a troop withdrawal prior to the election.
You said you wanted the troops withdrawn right after the election. That's now.
re: Must be one heck of a disappointment to see all of your doom and gloom predictions come to nothing.
Let's weigh it:
*We've got 1400 soldiers dead, 14,000 maimed, 100,000 Iraqis killed, untold number of Iraqi's maimed, 250,000 Iraqi's homeless, $200Billion+++ in US deficit spending, a completely destroyed infrastructure in Iraq, 60+ attacks (with terrorist methods = new veteran terrorists) within Iraq every single day. We've lost the respect of the world, we've burdened our kids with massive debt.
*Versus one election.
Would you make the same trade for one election in Iran, Syria, Cuba, China, North Korea, Egypt, Jordan, Saudi Arabia? How many elections can we afford?
