If you have a solution that involves the removal of hussein and a complete cessation of all killing, I'm sure the democrats would like to hear from you.

Well, let's start with the fact that it's not our territory.
If you can get past the imperialism argument (and I can, by the way) then the real issues are only (i) are we committed to spend the money and lose the lives necessary to stay; and (ii) are we prepared for the tax increases necessary to pay for it?
