Here are the facts, as we know them :
1. This war was going to start off with the " SHOCK & AWE " bombing of Baghdad.
2. When clandestine spying, claimed that Saddam & 6 of his thugs were meeting in such & such a place, THE PRESIDENT ( Geroge W. Bush, the CIC, remember him ? ) told those on charge to hold off on the S&A, and " get Saddam " !
3. No one , NO ONE , knows what the outcome of this is ...yet.
4. Shock & Awe has started. No one, NO ONE ever said how short or how long S&A would last.
5. A MASSIVE sand/wind storm hit.
6. Only 24 of OUR military has been killed in battle. One is too many; however, dear, war is all about killing and even the English, during Aigencourt, lost men. What made THAT battle so miraculous, was HOW FEW English died !
7. In THE fastest recorded time, during a war, the USA has pushed through weather problems, fragging, terrorist tactics, and are within a hair's breathe of Baghdad.
All of the above and still YOU call this a " debacle " ; all the whilst, you inform us that you garner info from EVERY source, collate it, and come to the conclusion that this has all gone awry and is a " DEBACLE " !
You aren't to be taken seriously, dear. You are incapable of comprehension AND you take Clark's words are gospel. Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesh !
