I think we should support our troops. We should stand behind them and bring them home!

Would this be expensive? Sure it would. But it'd be a lot less expensive than fighting the "Battle of Baghdad," a LOT less expensive than the results of setting a precedent saying that aggressive war is somehow okay all of a sudden, and a lot less expensive than watching the blowback terrorist attacks roll in as a result of our prosecuting an illegal war overseas. None other than the heads of both the CIA and the new Department of Homeland Security have stated that the main risk of future terrorist attacks on our soil happens if we go ahead with this offensive war against the Iraqis.

Might Bush lose face? Yeah. He might. On the other hand, he could still sell this as a grand move to put the pressure on to let the inspections work - and they are working - and then prudently withdraw the stick when it no longer needs to be brandished. War is not inevitable.

Support our troops. Bring them home.
