Don't blame me, I voted straight R, and encouraged all to do the same, but most Republican and Conservatives voters preferred to "send a message" and surrender Iraq to OBL.
The President got the message, and will act accordingly.
It is done, there is no sense in pretending otherwise.
But thank god that Iraqis did get to meet all of you and our troops, get to know what good and decent people we are, and at least now their children cannot be raised on lies about the US. They will now know that we gave lives for them.
At least they will know we tried to help them become a civilized nation. And others in the ME now know the truth about what we were trying to do in Iraq and Afghanistan, they may not admit in now, but the know.

Former U.S. Secretary of State Lawrence S. Eagleburger Replaces Robert Gates on Iraq Study Group
November 10, 2006
Former U.S. Secretary of State Lawrence S. Eagleburger has replaced former CIA Director Robert M. Gates as a member of the Iraq Study Group, study group co-chairmen James A. Baker, III and Lee H. Hamilton said on November 10. Gates resigned in a conversation with Baker, explaining that he felt he could no longer serve on the Iraq Study Group after President George W. Bush announced his nomination Wednesday as the Secretary of Defense. Both Baker and Hamilton praised Gates efforts on the Iraq Study Group, saying he had made significant contributions during his eight months as a member.
