We're in it now
I saw a flyer posted on a mailbox this morning that said something along the lines of "US: Out of Iraq Now." Like the proverbial flaming bag of poo on the doorstep, we can't just run away from Iraq now that we have toppled their government. Rummy and Wolfy, in their militaristic ADD probably can't wait to get their hands on the next target and leave the (what happened to irrelevant?) UN to fill in the details of Iraq's next government (Now: WMD "Program" free!). The hard-core liberal argument breaks down where leaving Iraq is concerned: yeah, we were lied to about the WMDs and the cost of the operation and the imminent security risk posed by the Baathists (under Saddam), but like a child who has emptied the toy box, we have to clean up the mess we made or else the security risk will continue to grow. That's what we call accountability, even if it comes with an $87 BILLION, or possibly higher, price tag.
