A half a trillion dollars says we do what we want, when we want. If leaving early causes the Democrat government to collapse, then we are back at square one. We leave when the Iraqi's stand up for themselves, not just saying they can stand up, they must demonstrate they can. The ultimate success of the Iraqi govt is the objective.

: "A half a trillion dollars says we do what we want, when we want." Except when the UN authorization expires, we are there at the invitation of the Iraqi government. Regardless of how much money we have (needlessly) spent in Iraq, it is a sovereign nation. The Chinese government has invested an enormous amount of money in the U.S., and yet they have, thankfully, NOT taken your advice and told us how to handle our affairs. And for good reason---as a sovereign nation we make our own laws and decisions, and so will the Iraqi government. --[[User:Jareddr|Jareddr]] 17:28, 14 July 2008 (EDT)

:Oh, and square one would be to have Saddam back in power, and I believe he is currently indisposed, so I don't think we will ever find ourselves literally back at square one. --[[User:Jareddr|Jareddr]] 17:28, 14 July 2008 (EDT)
