Ted, > The truth is turning Iraq into a democracy was an afterthought on the part of the bushies.

Look who's rewriting history, LOL ...

Democratizing Iraq was central to the neoconservative strategy in the Middle East. WMD was the more immediate reason for the invasion, but even though we didn't find any, it was decided that Iraq and the whole Middle East was much better off without him.

Of course, it took years to stabilize Iraq, but I firmly believe that the results are having a positive effect on pro-democracy movements all across the Middle East. That includes both Iran and Egypt.

You may disagree, of course, but you can't deny that democratization defines the neocon strategy. Even the anti-war web sites acknowledge this ... and vehemently criticize it.
