World/The blood-dimmed tide is loosed." William Butler Yeats. In Iraq the center does not seem to be holding. At some point our present situation has to e reassessed. We have a president who has gone from being resolute to just plain stubborn and obdurate on the subject of Iraq. Is President Bush more concerned with his own place and history and legacy than he is with the unyielding reality of what is happening? Iraqi's are protesting in the streets yelling "Death to America and Israel." Is it time to stop the madness and get out, or at least redeploy to the Kurdish area in the North?

The problem is simple. There is no criteria by which we can measure and declare success/victory. Bush stepped our collective shoe into this pile of poo and has no means for getting it off.

The US democracy experiment in Iraq suffers from the "observer affect". We keep putting in inputs and we are not getting any outputs and the whole experiment is about to explode.
