We would be met by Iraqis with flowers, their oil would pay for reconstruction, the rag-tag "dead-enders" were in their last throes, and on and on and on.

Respectfully... What in the world are you talking about?

I don't remember the president saying any of these things. I do remember the president telling how hard the road ahead will be, etc...

You may be right about the war being lost. But it is shameful to me that we could loose such an important war based on the stomach of a soft citizenry.

What do you think will happen if you're right? Think all the terrorists in Iraq will just go home? Do you think we will all be safe if we just give up on Iraq? How many in Iraq do you suppose will be murdered for being sympathetic to the US?
