Poll: Less than half of Americans think U.S. can win in Iraq
- source CNN.com

I never remember, and no I wasnt alive during Vietnam, a war that we didn't think we can win. I find this hard to accept. First, let me say I am against the invasion and in turn, the travesty that is the current war...however, we are there. We have two options, run and let the middle east fight it out themselves, potentially putting even more at risk, or stay, ramp up the troops and kick some ass. The main question is who's ass are we kicking? There is no single way to eliminate all the pockets of "hate" and make Iraq like the USA. So, how do we do this?

I don't know. Is leaving the best option given the fact it may be unable to be won? This is a hard thing to contemplate when you look at all the pieces involved.

I support our troops. Thank you for serving us.

I support our Country, even though externally we may be viewed differently than any time in history, a lot of that goes to the one guy I absolutely have no support for:

Our commander in chief (not capitalized on purpose)

Republicans are hypocrites and Democrats are spineless.

Two party systems suck.
