Yes, but unfortunately the powers that be are much more willing to listen to the likes of her than the likes of Free Republic these days.

There is a lot of confusion around definition of terms.
There is the War for the liberation of Iraq and the War Against International Terrorism in Iraq. It is important to keep them separate, even though they are inextricably tied.
War for the Liberation of Iraq. Yes, we won it 20 days after it started. We topped Saddam Hussein who was a threat for supporting terrorism and a capability to ultimately dispense weapons of mass destruction to his terrorist allies.
War Against International Terrorism in Iraq. We have pretty much wiped out the terrorist forces in Iraq. Our key goal now is to keep a government from forming that goes back to harboring and supporting terrorists, like Hussein did and Syria and Iran are doing.
The sectarian violence in Iraq today is all about who runs the country. The Bush Administration, and now the Baker report, are right that we have to transfer this responsibility to settle the domestic violence more quickly to the Iraqis. But, we cannot cut and run or we will be back in the soup with a terrorist sponsoring state, which happens to sit on a ton of oil for fresh cash.
When all is said and done, the Baker report vindicates what Bush has been doing, albeit tactics are constantly being evaluated and changed. The real stupid thing they said is to suggest that the state sponsors of terrorism, Iran and Syria, will be helpful. Utter nonsense.
