Well let's talk about waste. Let's say you play poker at a casino. It's a low probability bet, but there's a chance you might win. So you play and you lose $1000. Do you stay at the table? Because your odds go down the longer you stay. And that's the question with Iraq. It was a low probability bet and now it's just a question of throwing good money after bad. The reality is clear: there's no way we can move forward via occupation because there's no battle for us anymore. We're caught between about 20 competing forces who all want us out of the way and have unlimited money and men. We can still win, but only if we change tactics. And the first change is getting out of Iraq. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Introducing the Fusion Authority Quarterly Update. 80 pages of hard-hitting, up-to-date ColdFusion information by your peers, delivered to your door four times a year. http://www.fusionauthority.com/quarterly Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/message.cfm/messageid:220238 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
