I'm glad to see the situation improving. I believe the Iraqi people do want democracy and can fight for and win it.
You're wrong if you think liberals are upset that fewer people are dying in Iraq. The legitimacy of our presence in Iraq has nothing to do with body count. The fact that fewer people are dying does nothing to validate our presence there. The war was wrong when we dropped the first bomb on Iraq, and it's still wrong today. It's kind of like when my crabs started to clear up. The fact that the itching subsided did not mean my condition was suddenly a good thing.
