Well, the exit strategy should tie in with the reason for invasion.

The coalition went in to secure and dismantle WMDS, to oust (and hopefully capture) Saddam, and to set up an interim government. Check, check, check.

Beats the crap out of me what happened after the last "check." It seems to me that our job was over and done with once sovereignty was returned, Bremer flew out, and an interim government was elected. The rest should be up to the Iraqis.

"In Iraq, No Clear Finish Line"

Sure there is a clear finish line.

Train the new Iraqi Military
Get a Constitution in Place
Withdraw troops via Iran and Syria

Seems to be on schedule

Yeah, I'm sure if we had left on your proposed time frame, after Bremer Flew out, that Syria, and Iran, would have divided the country up.
