The fighting in the streets of Baghdad has planted the seeds of unrest upon our streets and in the halls of Congress.

Within the protest ranks is an element more dangerous than the liberals. These are the anarchists. They despise any form of organized government, and are instigators among well-intended (though misguided) liberals. Anarchists feed off deep domestic divides. They will ally themselves with Democrats and liberals for their own purpose only. They hate liberal governments every bit as much as conservative governments.

We'll weather this storm, but I HOPE ALL FUTURE PRESIDENTS TAKE NOTE! Since WWII, our politicians have restrained our military from fighting wars to their full capacity. If the politicians have no stomach for such war, get out of public life so our nation will never again suffer the consequence of limited war.

There would be no upcoming anti-war protests planned had the politicians shown the military the support necessary to conclude the war as quickly as possible. And that lunatic in Iran wouldn't be so quick to antagonize us if he had witnessed the full brunt of our military unleashed on Iraq.

I'll guarantee one thing right now. Whatever the final outcome of the troop surge, or an untimely troop withdrawal, no one is going to be satisfied with the outcome in Iraq. That's because we'll be drawn into another war with Iraq, and possibly other Islamic states in the region, in the not so distant future.
