On the other hand, this war was started to liberate the people of Iraq, right? (or was this for WMD's? I can't keep track of the goal of the week)
Assuming it was to liberate them... They've been liberated and police and government has been installed, equipped and trained for quite a while now. Eventually you have to let them stand on their own two feet. If leaving after achieving what you told the media you set out to do is retreating, these wars will never end. Its one of the things Ron Paul was very vocal about.
