Iraq is doing "just fine"? 265 dead in two weeks, buddy.
What drugs are you on? You mean our troops are garrisoned so don't get killed as often as before? Or some far corners of Iraq are not insurgent strongholds so are relatively peaceful? OK fine, but in case you hadn't noticed, we have a brewing civil war on our hands.

And no, I'm not blaming our troops. They do a fine job, with the exception of a few bad apples. But the whole situation is a black tunnel with only a few flickers of possible light at the end of it. I'll bet ten years from now we'll still have a mess in Iraq. Also notice the fact there are no UN peacekeepers or NATO troops, which handled Kosovo quite nicely.

The other things that aren't doing fine are the Halliburton scandals, the missing billions, the missing oil money and the cost of oil since we invaded that place. All big problems.
