Yeah, that's way more embarrassing than invading an unarmed country, pouring $700B in to it and sacrificing 4,236 American soldiers' lives.

Uh, you don't cause instability to an already volatile region and expect to pull out 2 weeks after occupying the White House. Military Strategy 101 & Common Sense 101.
Maybe the idiot should've listened to this guy:
While we hoped that popular revolt or coup would topple Saddam, neither the U.S. nor the countries of the region wished to see the breakup of the Iraqi state. We were concerned about the long-term balance of power at the head of the Gulf. Trying to eliminate Saddam, extending the ground war into an occupation of Iraq, would have violated our guideline about not changing objectives in midstream, engaging in "mission creep," and would have incurred incalculable human and political costs. Apprehending him was probably impossible. We had been unable to find Noriega in Panama, which we knew intimately. We would have been forced to occupy Baghdad and, in effect, rule Iraq."
- Bush Sr.

At least a pull out is high on his agenda, Bush the idiot wanted to keep sending more troops there to die.
The only Kool Aid drinkers are the morons that voted for Bush the idiot. Highest unemployment in over 20 years, highest national deficit in history; highest foreclosure rate since the great depression; etc. etc.

They have already moved troops from Iraq to Afghanistan, we can't just pull everyone out in one day.
If Obama's plan isn't the right one....what is? Don't be critical of the guy a week in and just say that his plan won't fix anything, give up an idea. With the condition that the economy is in, I'm sure that they are open to ideas. Obviously, Bush's plan wasn't the right thing, what would be the solution then? More tax cuts?
