>> We've already handed over about half of the bases to Iraqi forces.

So what? That was not my point. Do you have any indication that we would leave *all* our bases? What about all those comments on "projecting power" to the rest of ME and relocating Saudi bases, and so forth?

>> Do you ever actually listen to what Bush says

Everytime I don't like what the Comedy Channel has on.

>> we'll leave when the Iraqi people are ready to take over their own security and they ask us to leave.

How quaint! We dismantle the police and all security infrastructure. We create an atmosphere of fear and hate. And then we say that we will leave when Iraqis are ready. How and when are they going to get "ready"? And by the way, poll after poll has shown that the wast majority of Iraqis want us out of Iraq and believe our tenure there creates more problems than it solves. Just how should the people ask us to leave?
