Lets take a look at this:
ByIt was just announced that President Bush will address the nation on Wednesday at 9:00 PM to inform us about his new Iraq strategy. Democrats are probably already writing up their drafts on how their going to attack the President and his war on Iraq before they even hear what he has to say.
Democrats have been exploiting the difficulties in Iraq for political gain with the hopes of forcing a complete withdrawal. They want Americans to know that they were the ones who brought their men and women home. The question though is at what cost?
Say Democrats are successful and we’re forced to withdraw completely from Iraq, what are some possible outcomes?
The biggest risk to America is Iraq breaks out into a complete civil war with a new leader emerging that makes Saddam look like George Washington. We already know that the one thing Al-Qaida cherishes is a comfortable home to plot the West’s demise. President Clinton’s withdrawal from Mogadishu is a perfect example of what could happen. We know that a number of terrorist attacks were planned from there and the whole country was close to falling into the hands of Al-Qaida if it wasn’t for West friendly Ethiopian forces that came in to help.
Another worse case scenario is that Iran uses the upheaval to send in a stabilizing force to take over the country. I think by now Iran knows the world is not ready to start a war with them and would let Iraq become Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s Munich.
The only hopeful outcome is that the different factions come together and follow through with an elected government. The reality is if they haven’t been able to do it in the last two years, they’re definitely not going to do it when American forces leave. As I’ve said in the past, if President Bush could be blamed for anything, it’s having faith in the Iraqi people that they would not revert back to a state of nature and sit down and start a normal government.
Considering that we no longer have bases in Saudi Arabia would leaving Iraq be the best option for U.S. security? Iraq is a strategic asset for a variety of reasons and its unfortunate Democrats are going to risk the future security of our nation because they don’t have the stomach to tell Americans like it is. Americans need to get over the delusion that the world is a pretty place and that as a nation you don’t have to play hardball. If they don’t and we continue to travel down this road, nations like China, Iran, Russia and even Venezuela are going to give us a spanking.
It's the end of the post, now what?

We should institute the draft so the 101st Keyboardist Brigades can be forced to sacrifice themselves and their own children. We’ll see Bush’s 30 percent approval rating go down to 19 percent when his base of goons are forced to share the sacrifice.
Worst.President.Ever.

Again, typical Liberal emotional rant. Lets not discuss the realities of nation building and everything connected to it since the beginning of civilization itself.
How do Liberals make it through the day knowing that their beloved California, home of Hollywood and Pelosi their champion, was acquired through military aggression by then Democrat President James Polk by starting a war with Mexico.
Considering Polk started that war because he wanted to expand the size of the U.S. and take control of both coasts, Liberals must be ashamed. If I were Pelosi and Hollywood I would move from San Francisco to somewhere not tainted with the blood of imperialism.

The re-enlistment rate for the military is at one of its highest rates ever. I guess some people agree with the President.

Name calling will not solve any of our problems at hand. Liberals/Conservatives must listen to each other with open ears. We do not have all the answers. The bottom line is we are in a dangerous position and the current plans have not been working well. We must dig in our own heads and think… really think. We the people have a voice and responsibility to be honest and not let our pride get in the way of peace.
Both sides have valid points that need consideration. Not to mention our HUGE deficit that needs major attention.
