I don't think we should have ever invaded Iraq, but we cannot leave it worse off than we entered it.
I would like to point out that more heros died in the 8 years of BJ Clinton than have died in Iraq in 5 years. 7500

So now we have reached the nice round milestone of 4,000 dead in Iraq. 4000 dead American soldiers, that is; it's almost as if the two orders of magnitude greater number of slaughtered Iraqis, the millions of refugees, the destruction of an entire country, simply don't matter and don't count.
Americans find it hard to gather outrage over thousands of our own dead, and tens of thousands wounded, and they sure as hell aren't going to get stirred up over hundreds of thousands of dead foreigners.
