I wish I could use my clever title

Should American troops evacuate from Iraq? Cheney says, no dice. Pennsylvania representative John Muthra, a veteran himself, said suggested that "The public turned against this war before I said it...The public is emotionally tied into finding a solution to this thing, and that's what I hope this administration is going to find out." Cheney however said, "It is a dangerous illusion to suppose that another retreat by the civilized world would satisfy the appetite of the terrorists and get them to leave us alone." He believes that America has to remain there in hopes that the democracy the US has set up remains strong in spite of terrorist who hope to destroy it.

The war in Vietnam could be seen a similar event, as it too had its controversy. By the time the war was drawing to a close, many politicians had already decided that it was time they gave up, including Senators James William Fulbright and Robert F. Kennedy. Of course, the reasons behind this one were different, and it was decided that they work on peace negotiations. Similar to the current situation though, there was a heated debate about the war to begin with. By the time those Senators were agreeing to vote to pull the troops out, people were already protesting the war, including The Moratorium, the largest one-day demonstration against the war. Nothing that spectacular has happened as of yet, but as Muthra said, the public was already against the the US involvement in Iraq to begin with, so if Congress chooses to side with Cheney, who's to say it won't happen? Just a crazy thought....

My clever title would have been "Dick doesn't want to pull out."

Gah mah jah, I got a lot more to do. You wait until the 4th, I'm gonna post hardcore, just you wait.
