Iraqistan

Iraq is doing to us what Afghanistan did to the USSR. If we don't get out of Iraq, and soon, our army will be destroyed, our economy will be in shambles and, like the USSR in the late 80s, we will have become irrelevant. We shall be despised but we shall be irrelevant.

Such will be the legacy of George W. Bush and his band of bungling, incompetent and arrogant neocons.

Perhaps the one good thing that will come out of this disaster will be a democratic majority for another 40 years, but only if the democrats get their act together and listen to the people who put them back in control of congress.

If it takes stopping the funding to stop the war, then stop the funding. That is what the people elected democrats to do.
