"We couldn't leave Saddam in power thumbing his nose at the UN and intimidating his neighbors (and terrorizing his subjects)." The opposition argument is that we could have been more patient because the threat wasnt imminent or at least turned out to be not imminent. And the patriots among the opposition, unlike some of the posters here, would make the case that we should have concentrated on al quaeda and bin laden first. Many here i am certain were against the afgan war as well although most will never admit that for obvious reasons. I think the bad intel may have compelled us to do something prematurely. We are where we are now. I am in favor of timetables because it not only puts the iraqi govt on notice but also the iraqi people, especially those who toy with the insurgents and the terrorists. If they dont get it right, they will be the ones who suffer for generations.
