However, before anyone thinks I'm going pinko... I am in no way sympathetic to the yahoos protesting today in DC. There is a huge difference between what I think you're talking about and what the people running/organizing/participating in the protests today want.
I also believe that it is definately possible to finish what we started in Iraq. To walk away now would be disastrous. Even if you disagree with starting the war, it seems to me that people should see the importance of finishing it.

Skip, in the other thread I posted about how a lot of groups that showed up today had nothing to do with the war...opportunity knocked and the fringe elements answered.
I believe that we have to finish what we started because we have destabilized the region, but I think it needs to be done as quickly and cleanly as possible. That being said, the point of the protest (or at least what *I* think the point should be) is that we think twice before we go off into the next country.
