Thank you. I accept all you say, but still believe that the response was wrong. The perception is changing. And we know that perception unfortunately molds reality in politics.

If Murtha said we could leave now and do now harm, I am in total disagreement. However, I do think that public opinion and perception is beginning to call for some sort of framework. To me, the increasing volume of discontent is demanding a response. It may be that the admin chooses to ignore this- but it is at its own peril.

The whole Arab politics thing----. Before the war, we completely ignored the political psychology governing Saddam, and all the cultural/political ramifications of our act, and they came back and bit us.

As for the moral authority of Cowards cut and run-- totally agree with you-- that whole thing was just silly. THAT is the kind of rhetoric that has me frustrated enough to actually POST.
