the iraq war was horrible. its terrific Saddam is out. still, it does not justify the war.

I am worried that since now we are pulling out all of our troops, that every small thing that was accomplished over there will be lost.

I am not calling it a win by any means. But a failure it most certainly was not.

Last night, every single one of the Republican candidates for President, except Ron Paul and Jon Huntsman, said they would enlarge the military and aggressively go after Iran pre-emptively.

Romney said he wanted to double the size of ships in the navy, and increase the army troop strength by 100,000.

Well if you count the Trillion dollars we spent the loss of our boys and the fact they still hate us and it will fall back into chaos as soon as we leave then it was an epic failure.

If the goal was to topple a dicator that dad failed to take out , generate Billions of dollars for Cheny's former company Haliburton then it was an unmitigated success.

Depends how you look at it. My opionion I can give a **** about any dictator as long as they don't **** with us.. I'd be glad to pitch in a couple troops for a unilateral effort.

Civil War Revolution and WWII in my book are the only 3 wars we should have been involved in.

Bush1 didn't fail to take Saddam out....He had some sense...His son should have read dad's book on why he didn't advance on Baghdad and saddam..
