Not if you're a raving leftoid for whom US victory seems to be a bitter pill.

But once we were in there in force we had 2 choices -- win or surrender. In my estimation ... that is no choice at all.

Could not agree more. This war ultimately is not about Iraq. It's about America. Weather or not the US has the balls to fight and the will to win. Iran is financing the war not so much to control Iraq as to humiliate the USA. With the nightly TV parade of the likes of Kennedy, Pelosi, Obama et al bleating for exit strategies and withdrawl over the last few years they had every reason to think they'd manage it. Must really be pissing them off to find that against all odds some yanks are just too damm contrary to get the message that we have to lose.
