They all can say what they want but they ALL realize that pulling out of Iraq would be a disaster in the making not only to the region but to our credibility.
No progress.......you REALLY need to expand your reading to something other than "Far Left R Us". If you can't see progress in that country since "03" you clearly have been wearing blinders. Don't believe everything you hear on MSNBC. Credibility, that has long been a thing of the past with the rest of the world, only the die hard right wing zealots believe the USA has any credibility. My friend , unlike you who must only watch Fox News, I keep a wide array of news sourses at my perusal, from books to newspapers to all venues on TV. I even catch some C-span at times, Bill Maher is one of my favorites, I even have watched the un-funny Dennis Miller. And to be candid, I am not far left, left of center most assuredely, but the far left is to much. I am a realist. I can see the Iraq war is not working and see that immediate withdrawel is the best thing for everyone but the People holding promises of huge oil contracts, hence the complete absence of thought of withdrawel. The corporations rule, period. The only explanation for an opinion such as yours must be an inclusory monetary connection to the war profiteering, or a complete absence of moral terpitude. To condone the brutality that is present in Iraq, is akin to condoning Hitlers treatment of the Jews. You can blame it on the insurgency if you want, but none of this would be happening if we didn't invade.
