It's people like that guy that make me want to do 2 things:
(0) get the US to pull out if iraq
(1) start a business selling wood chippers there.

Ok, so maybe that was a little over the top... but at this point he's either been "liberated" or "conquered", depending on perspective. Either way, if he wants us out, not shooting at us is a good start. If only the lessons of Vietnam and Mogadishu could be erased... fortunately this is a different president, and this guy (and a lot of iraqis, apparently) have missed that.

At the risk of getting chewed out again...

Yes, let's leave Iraq how that we've created utter chaos in their country so that the guy with the most guns (but not WMDs!) can show up and declare himself dictator. I'm firmly convinced it was a bad idea to go there in the first place, but we can't leave now. We made this bed and now we get to lie in it.

What lessons from Vietnam and Somalia are you wanting to erase, exactly? Cause Bush seems to be ignoring most of them pretty successfully already.
