Even if your premise was accurate, we can't simply pull out of Iraq and let it's populace face the ravages that would follow. When we did this in Vietnam over three million people in the region were slaughtered. We must not let that happen in Iraq. If we do, this will be the last time anyone partners with us.
There were a number of dynamics at work Tuesday. Some of it was related to the war. Some of it was related to the Bush' stance on stem cells. Some of it was related to same sex marriage. Some of it was just plain whackjob leftist propagandist disinformation. And then some of it was the perception by some on the right that their hopes and goals were not shared by this president.
This may be more of a referendum on Iraq than I give it credit for, but it doesn't matter. We are in Iraq and we WIll see it through. That's the way it's going to be.
It is very accurate. 49% of voters last night were Bush voters in 2004! 57% disapproved of Bush's job performance. 600% voted on national issues. 56% disapprove of how the War in Iraq. 55% want at least a partial withdrawal from Iraq right now. And, no one is partnering with us. The UK will be out of Iraq in the next few months. Before that, that was about all that we had as far as partnerships in Iraq. It was stupid to think we could achieve our objectives in Iraq alone.

The dynamics that were responsible for our loss of both the House and Senate were Iraq. We didn't lose last night because we oppose embryonic stem cell research or gay marriage.

If we don't react to the election results last night regarding Iraq, we will have even more losses in 2008 and we will lose more seats in the House and Senate. Is Iraq worth having more liberals on the SCOTUS? The place is a hellhole and will always be a hellhole because the people in Iraq are too interested in the religious cult of Islam they are in to adopt the democratic principles we in the US had to adopt two hundred years ago to become the greatest nation in the world and too interested in fighting age-old fights over which sect of Islam is the true sect. What is your definition of seeing it through, because we will be out of Iraq very soon. The Republicans running in 2008 WILL NOT allow this debacle to happen again.
