Can't win, Mr. Dean?

Define win. We have traded the lives of over two thousand young
Americans, for one SOB. I have a hard time considering that a win. We
have shed as much American blood for Iraqi freedom, as we did in our own
Revolutionary War.

While that survey shows there is hope for Iraq, it isn't all roses. Last
year's survey showed similar levels of optimism, but the level of
violence increased. There are still high levels of Sunni dissatisfaction,
and the insurgency will continue. I have stated that I believe we have to
stay the course, but don't be calling this a "win".

As for your neo-con dream of having bases to provoke Syria and Iran,
forget it. If you read the numbers from that survey, at least 92% of
Iraqis want us out. Timing is their only differentiation.
