Sadly, you might be right. If we stay, then, as you say, more of our
troops will die. If we leave, Iraqi civil war and then major Middle East
destabilization. A truly classic case of "damned if we do and damned if
we don't".

Too bad Bunnypants didn't read Poppy's book about the first Gulf war
that said this is *exactly* what would happen if Iraq was invaded.
(however, credit where it's due-- Bunnypants *did* admit he doesn't read
and gets his information by being spoon-fed by his handlers).

"I will unite this country".

Uh-huh, sure.

"Mission accomplished"

Yup, you betcha.
