tejek,

re:And the truth is that several of us on this thread have been mostly right about Iraq for the past three years

That's your opinion - you missed all the really big ones - the death toll for the invasion was not tens of thousands of US troops, we walked right over them. You got the Iraqi vote all wrong - it astonished the media, they were speechless for days. You did get the cost correct - way more than anyone expected.

re:And what you don't understand........the job won't be finished for a long, long time....decades possibly......

I knew that from the beginning - you're the one wanting made for TV slot solutions. I will join the protests after they get a constitution and we don't start drawing down forces. I believe several folks made many speeches about the years spent rebuilding Germany and Japan. Even when it's obvious Iraq was moving at record speeds - it was never fast enough for some.

re:Like a parent sending their kid to college

Using this analogy - after they graduate, constitution in hand we start leaving.

And the truth is that several of us on this thread have been mostly right about Iraq for the past three years but have been derided unmercifully by the Bushies during that time.

Nonsense. Iraqis would rather be in their current situation than under another 20 years of Saddam's rule followed by 20 years of Uday's rule. Your support for Saddam's regime is baffling.
