Iraq Plans

One moment in the Repo debates tonight came when the sister of an American soldier killed in Iraq asked the candidates what they would do to conclude our efforts there. Somebody wanted to partition the country, somebody else wanted to write them a new constitution. Somebody else (Rudy?) wants more of the same -train the Iraqis. John McCain, after six years of kissing Bush's ass, has now decided that George did a lousy job of managing the war (duh!). He doesn't have a plan, but is sure George's new plan is just right, and that it would be bad if we left. Ron Paul was the only Republican who spoke forthrightly and sensibly: The war was a mistake and a betrayal of American values, Bush sacrificed the soldiers who died for nothing, and his colleagues all want to keep doing it. He, of course, has no chance.
