We need to walk away from NewYork, Detroit, New Orleans, LA, and Miami. A VICTORY for sanity and fiscal discipline. This libshit is easy.

RE:"they WON'T "follow us home"." What do you mean by that? If we pull out of Iraq maybe it becomes a war zone. I suspect the country would divide into 3 parts minimum and years or civil cleansing would ensue.

"President Bush told Americans last night that failure in Iraq would be a disaster." We were told "defeat" in Vietnam would be a disaster. We walked away, and as far as America goes, it wasn't even a hiccup. It was a VICTORY for sanity and fiscal discipline. I totally disagree that walking away from Iraq will be a disaster. Iraqis will fight to control their country - they WON'T "follow us home". In fighting to control their country, THEY'LL toss the jihaddis out. Eventually, a faction will win. We may not like it, but it will represent the collective will of the Iraqi people. I agree.
