What it this point? (what are you using to measure "this point"?)
3 years? 2000+ dead 15000+ wounded? 150 billion dollars in? or tangible "improvements" to Iraq (all of which existed (in however an evil state) before we went in) restoration of basic prewar services (electricity, water, sewer) a functional police force? a functional army? a functional goverenment? We didn't do the work, we didn't make the sacrifices, and we didn't make the hard calls, so how can we expect the results?
