Who do you think is winning over there? Not the Iraqi gov't.....not the Americans. Its a stalemate....there is no winner. We are bleeding dollars much like the Soviet Union did in Afghanistan, and we have nothing to show for it. Bush/Cheney did not know what they were doing.......there is no reason why you have to follow in their footsteps.

"Rockets and mortar shells again fell on the fortified Green Zone in central Baghdad, as they have for the past week, and the American military said a soldier died on Monday in northeast Baghdad when his vehicle was struck by a roadside bomb. Another American soldier died of wounds in a bomb attack south of Baghdad on March 23, the military said. But traffic in Baghdad was brisk as the government lifted a curfew put in place during the fighting in Basra.

I read that article this morning and was absolutely floored at their take. Anyone who doesn't see the media bias in this reporting is blind.

The Adm. who heads the Joint Chiefs said pretty much the same thing.....its not clear that this was a defeat for Sadr. You have to understand that we are no longer in the make believe world of Bush circa 2003. More and more, the country deals in facts, not fantasy.
