I disagree. I can't see how any reasonable person can think that leaving Iraq right now will somehow make it better for us or for them. Leaving could lead immediately to an all-out war in the middle east. At the very least, the country will devolve into a civil war--and I have little confidence that Iran and Syria will mind their own business (they are not now). I like Huckabee's analogy, because leaving Iraq is like stuffing an iPod you broke into your pocket and running out the door: running away compounds the issues, it does not solve them.

I'd really like to hear someone explain how leaving immediately turns Iraq into a stable place and doesn't come back, to bite us.
