Unpatriotic to pull out? Impeach W first...

Despite how nice it is to say I told you so (and I can't even do that because I was duped by W. into initially supporting the war), it does make sense that we can't just pull out of Iraq. There does seem to be a good strategy outlined in Rich's editorial defending Iraqi civilians rather than going out to hunt insurgents. That would require a lot more support, troops, and money.

Since the president has a very low approval rating, we as a country can no longer trust him and his cronies to do this job right. So maybe the thing to do is to impeach this W. guy and get another person in there who we trust, _not_ Dick Cheney, and finish this job right. Who would it be, and how could this be done? Call your congressperson.

Maureen Dowd my heroine

I'm not sure what I'll do to feel righteous when the New York Times makes it's editorials pay-to-view. I'm probably too cheap to pay up. Anyway, here's what I proudly call a scathing assessment of W and his trumped up war.
