Yeah we won, in 2003, "mission accomplished", remember?
Oh wait, we "won", when Gen Petraeus convinced the natives that if they helped us whup the insurgents streaming into the country, we would go home.
You see, most of us don't want Iraq to be a state, not even a possession, because if that happens, nobody will ever trust us again.

Well then what the fuck are we still there for, nine years later?
Oh that's right, we're doing that "nation building" we don't do.

Hmm, how do you know when you're done?
I guess you ask the nation you built, if they are ready to go it alone.

But I'm sure Romney would give you better job security, at least until you're dead.
