It really does need to be asked: Who will be pleased by a US withdrawal short of total victory? The Iranian leaders will be pleased. The Syrian leaders will be pleased. Terrorist groups like Hamas, al-Qaeda and Hezbollah will be pleased. Russia’s tyrants will be pleased.
Comment: I ususlly get a laugh when conservative cheerleasders/hacks spout these talking points. They're the same people who claimed that Saddam had WMD, and that Iraq had connections with Al-Qeada, and that we'd be greeted as liberators, and that we didn't need a lot of troops, and that we'd stand down when the Iraqi people stood up, and that we're winning in Iraq, and that everything's going great becasue John McCain was able to walk thorugh the sreets of Bagdad with tons of military personel on guard!, and all that other bullshit that turned out to be wrong.
Why are these fucking idiots still spouting off at the mouth about what could happen if we withdrew our troops from Iraq, when they've been dead wrong about the whole damn war every step of the fucking way? I wound't trust these guys to tell me what time it was!
Yet, this is the nature of politics: fling shit back and forth and choose which pile of shit stinks less.

So is being stuck on stupid. Which Noonan is. Terminally.
