We can all yell at each other until we're blue in the face (until our fingers are bleeding?) about who has the 'higher ground' with regards to Iraq and we have the full power of the Internet to make a case for one candidate or another.
My question is this:
What's more important right now, and which will be more important on January 20th 2009?
How we got into Iraq and how we stayed there, or how we get out of Iraq and when?
Edited by popular demand to include the third choice.

2. Need a category for both. |
|
Taking care of both is planetary triage. Getting out prevents more deaths now. Trying the bastards who put us there for that crime and the further crimes they perpetrated while we were there may hinder future such fiasco's and will help heal a wounded world. I see both as equal and equally necessary.

7. To me in the primary, its how we got in |
|
I think any dem will get out and in fact there plans are strikingly similar. But judgement does matter.

9. How we got there is more important, because it foretells whether we will make such further mistakes. |
|
We know Obama will get us out. We don't know that Hillary won't be duped again.

13. We don't have a time machine |
|
So we should focus all of our efforts to getting out of Iraq first.

14. Getting out is quite important, but |
|
We must be damn sure we will never be duped into this kind of thing again. So both are important.

17. We should have never gone into Iraq. But since we did the important |
