Hmm, not sure I can go there. I thought the invasion of Iraq was maybe the most misguided foreign policy decision of my lifetime, but I hoped it would succeed. If it had all been over in a few weeks, and Iraq paid for its own (brief) occupation, and a Jeffersonian democracy flowered between the Tigris and Euphrates, I would have been relieved and pleased.

By your logic I should have been fervently wishing for OIF2 to fail. That's kinda messed up.

I'm beginning to get the impression that Republican's don't really want to return to power anytime soon.
