If it were possible to "finish the job" of course we should stay. BUT IT IS NOT POSSIBLE. This is not a war that can be won. It never was. Remember Vietnam, anyone? North Korea and Iran are working hard on their nuclear weapons programs while we're screwing around with Iraq, which apparently never had nuclear weapons in the first place. Nor has anything we've done in Iraq made our world a safer place - all we are doing is breeding more terrorists and creating more hatred for our country around the world. Bush needs to cut his losses, admit his failure, and GET OUT NOW.

Invading Iraq was the most logical step in overthrowing the Iranian government whilst losing the least American soldiers.
I believe one of the objectives was to put so much pressure on the Iranian extremist government that they will go bankrupt before they can actually get a nuclear weapon.
Their mostly pro-western peoples will be dissatisfied to say it mildly and overthrow the current extremist.
Let's face it the Sha was the worst as far as the Iranians felt and they have "settled" for an extremist government that has improved living standards for them. If standards drop with their economy teetering on the brink of bankruptsy do not be suprised if another pro-western government emerges with a military coup.
Afghanistan to their east and Iraq on the west. One point of the axis of evil is surrounded and under immense pressure to attain a nuclear power they cannot afford to gain in such a short period of time. Yet it is their only avenue to keep their extremist terrorist sponsoring government intact. Therefore they hope for the best with Achmidinahjhad's statements "We are full steam ahead with our nuclear proliferation." They realize attaining nuclear power is their only hope. That is why they will NOT budge whether discussions are unilateral or multi lateral. This will only buy them time. A commodity that they have very little of.

Yes we should stay.
People don't understand that we can't just pack up and leave. If we do that we will be screwing over the Iraqi people. They will be taken over by the insurgents and Iran. Iran already has plans of taking over the country in the event of the US pulling out. Stabilizing Iraq will prevent Iran from taking over the entire region and starting World War III. Iran's plans are eerily similar to those of Hitler during World War II.
There is too much to type here so if you want to know more email me.

It would not be smart to leave if we want to change Iraq at all. I believe if we pulled out now things in Iraq would go back to the way they were before and terrorism would become a huge deal again. Then everyone would get mad at Bush again. No, don't leave now.

Well now we should. If they ever thought of bugging out, it should have been like 4 years ago. We should finish the job because we can't just let all the bloodshed go to waste. People are dying for us an we're just going to bug out?

We should set a timetable for withdrawal, perhaps a year or
a year and a half, and then withdraw. Our troops should not
be in the middle of a civil war. We should be focusing our
efforts to restrain Iran and fight the Taliban in Afganistan.

Not that the opinion of the American people matter, but we should leave TODAY and let them blow each other up. I couldn't care less about those ingrates. Our troops could be better utilized here.
