[pippin]

What would you recommend if elections were held today and you were the new Democratic president?

1. Or

we could just leave and Saddam go back into power.

2. No, put Bush, Blair and Howard in prison is the solution

3. Arm the GOP Party members and Media Whores and send them to fight

their war. Including their children.

Bring our children home now.

4. You are the weiner, dArkeR... hit it on the head!

Of course, a negotiated deal involving all the groups of Iraq and the neighboring Arab countries would be a nice thing. It would take some country or group other than the US, UK, or UN to do it though. How about a coalition of Muslim countries taking charge of negotiations to set up a parliamentary style government in which all three major groups get some control?

5. Solution: elect a democrat who will turn it into an Alliance for Progress

sort of thing with Iraqis benefitting from the wealth of their own nation, with a middle class forming, and so that Baghdad turns into a Paris of the middle east. A county that rich in natural resources -- there's no reason that they should not have a middle class which is among the happiest, wealthiest and healthiest in the world. Elect a Democrat and that will happen 50 years sooner than if you keep Bush in office for another term.
