I can empathize, because it's clear that President Bush isn't going to declare a victory. There's been discussion aplenty around here on the merits of the idea, with yours truly the curmudgeonly hold-out asserting that in this kind of war, it's too early to call it a win. Mind you, I hope you're all correct. But I hold a contrarian (and apparently minority) position. Heh. If it all does go well and we leave cleanly in 2011, with a functional nation of Iraq standing tall, I can't ...
