Iraq "War"

There has been much talk of late on the status of the Iraq war, albeit only from conservative commentators. The major media outlets would rather pretend we are losing and promote Obama's rapid pull-out plan. But the fact is that we are engaged in what is essentially a police action, just as our troops still in Kosovo are doing. And you don't see anyone crusading to end that "war" do you? Michael Yon, who has reported more from Iraq than any other reporter(and from around the world as well), thinks the war is over. Michael Totten tends to agree, with a few caveats. Meanwhile, a WSJ delegation just returned and they highlight the importance of not withdrawing too quickly. Of course, Obama has more "plans" for the place, even though he has no idea what has been going on there and every position he has taken on the war has been, and continues to be, wrong. He even refuses to acknowledge that Bush's surge plan works, and McCain has done a good job outflanking him on this issue. This issue will be a major one for this election, even if Obama's campaign wants to try and re-frame it about the economy.
