POPSA distant "ally" As I've said before, when the dust settles, Iran and Iraq will be closer allies than the US and Iraq...

POPSMore of the same? I don't think it's true, but it amazing that McCain is viable considering the economy, Katrina response, Iraq and ever other thing this administration has touched. I realize McCain has distanced himself from a lot of this, but he certainly hasn't done so on Iraq...

POPSRemember - YOUR tax $$$ are paying for this... And you're paying interest (a lot to the Chinese, who lend us the money by buying US securities) on these purchases too. I think anyone could think of better ways to help and protect our nation with the billions that are going to Iraq each month...

POPSThe Shia problem... We traded a Sunni tyrant for a Shia majority in Iraq that will be closely aligned with Iran... Both the Mahdi army and the Badr corps are funded, trained and have close ties to the Iranian Qods force... Although Maliki is attempting to do the right thing banning armed militia parties from government (they can be only one "army" in a nation-state), the effort is likely to cause his downfall. Iraq is simply not ready to be a representative democracy. These people place far more importance on religious matters than political reconciliation. The fast we realize this and get out the better...

POPSThe cost of deployments... We are simply asking too much from our brothers in uniform... a cost that is being paid for a low probability of an outcome in our national interest. When will we stop gambling with our military?
