If it is failing it must be changed and to our eyes Iraq is failing.  But I 
sometimes wonder if other people define failing as we do.  From what I have 
heard of Kerry, he sounds like he will stay the course in Iraq.  I admit 
that no matter what we do there it will cost lives and prestige but we have 
to do something.  Maybe we should just pull out and let the place fall into 
chaos or maybe we should just let the dummy & co stay in office and reap 
the fall out?  I do not know,
