Solutions to the quagmire in Iraq...
I'm sure you have all been getting the "democrats complain about Iraq but offer no solutions..." as i have. It is the basic rebuplican conservative talking point any Hannity listener throws down now...

So let me offer step one as a reply, and then maybe we can continue the dialogue after that...

STEP ONE: End support for any administration that does not actually want the war to end....

The Bush Administration is profiteering. They are making billions off military contracts and oil. Why would they want this to be over any time soon? They have gotten everything they could have asked for from 9-11 and the war in Iraq. Why kill the cash cow?

I know this is simple... a simple answer to a stupid question. Which is what we need right now.

The polls are down for these guys and this bullshit war. People are at a point where they might understand. NOW IS THE TIME to really push the message that this administration DOES NOT ACTUALLY WANT TO LEAVE IRAQ and does not want the war to end.

After all, he said it himself... "IT'S WORTH IT"

1. 2 for 1 exchange. For every 2 Iraqis trained, 1 US soldier comes home.

3. Contact whatever arab allies we have left and bring their troops
into Iraq as we start pulling out. Iraq is already lost, some of us just don't know it yet.
