You are 100% right on that, Capt'n...

In the case of Iraq we were definately on a path to success with the inspectors in place and the Iraqi's cooperating...

That's the most difficult part about this war...

Bush could have had a win... Bush could have gone out as a hero... Now he will be remembered as a stubborn man who refused to accept victory and instead chose defeat???

Well, it barely gor him re-lected in '04 and if one looks at Ohio he might not have even won but he wanted his war and he got it... Guess he really showed his daddy up, didn't he???
