"There's one thing I'm not going to do, I'm not going to pull our troops off the battlefield before the mission is complete," he said in a speech setting the stage for high-stakes meetings with the Iraqi prime minister later this week. "We can accept nothing less than victory for our children and our grandchildren."

Dear idiot.
What is the mission? How do you define 'victory'?
Getting rid of the WMDs? Iraq didn't have any.
Punishing Iraq for aiding Al Qaeda? They weren't.
Avenging 9-11? Iraq had nothing to do with it.
How is victory possible when the mission was a lie right from the start? WE cannot achieve the stated goals for invading Iraq. Therefore, this is a war that cannot be won, only lost.
