Huzzah and Hully Gee! Victory in Iraq is achieved. Send the troop transports and bring them all home.
If they have any further problems, I'm sure those nice folks at Blackwater will be more than happy to help out. The Iraqis can pay them so we don't have to. If they get killed, well, they knew the job was dangerous when they took it.

What about the last 3? Still need to fix those first before troops get on home.

Why? 15 of 18 is almost complete. What's the matter? Don't you trust those Iraqis to finish the job? It's cost us almost 2 Trillion dollars so far. Don't you have any confidence in our little Iraqi brothers to shoulder the load? I hear it's getting to be as quiet and democratic as colonial Virginia. According to most of the polls I've seen, a majority of Sunnis, Shi'ites and Kurds want us to leave now. Do we believe in majority rule or not? We also know the majority oppose permanent US bases there and immunity for soldiers and contractors from Iraqi law the we helped them formulate. It seems to me the Iraqis are singing this song I posted on mt publishing webpage here:

How Can I Miss You When You Won't Go Away?
by Dan Hicks
Quote:
I talked to your mother and I talked to your Dad.
They say they tried but it's all in vain.
I begged and I pleaded, I even got mad.
Now we must face it. You give me a pain.
Chorus
How can I miss you when you won't go away?
I keep telling you day after day.
But you don't listen, you only stay and stay.
How can I miss you when you won't go away?
Your never-ending presence really cramps my style.
I dream it won't always be the same.
At first I was attracted, but after a while,
Have you ever heard of the hard-to-get game?
Chorus
Out of six billion people, why must it be me?
Why, oh why won't you turn me loose?
Do me a favor and listen to my plea.
I'm not the only chicken on the roost.
Chorus
I talked to your mother and I talked to your Dad.
They say they tried and it's all in vain.
I begged and I pleaded, I even got mad.
Now we must face it, you give me pain.
Chorus
