WHY WE CAN LEAVE SOON

Here is a funny notion, a little quip about leaving Iraq. How about we do this why don't we get the electrical grid up first. Instead of Iraqi's experiencing 2 hours of electricity a day how about 24 hours of electricity? Can you imagine living in a country that sees temps of 115 degrees and not having AC? When the temps were in the 90's for much of August I was pretty damn uncomfortable imagine what the Iraqi's feel. Once we do that how about instead of spending 1 billion on an embassy we spend 1 billion on employing Iraqi's ,developing a workforce. A billion dollars is alot of money I bet we could create at least a couple of jobs. The Iraqi's might even like to make money and provide for their families They might even see a future instead of worrying about how or when they might be blownup, maimed, mutilated or secretly detained in Abu Ghraib. Maybe we could find out what Paul Bremer and co-horts did with the missing 9 million dollars checked to go to the Iraqi people. I bet the Iraqi's kind of wonder how competent we are to bring "freedom and democracy" when we keep on losing money earmarked to help them. Maybe we could force Halliburton to hire Iraqi citizens to rebuild the country instead of bringing in Filipino,Thai,Bangledeshi and Indian work forces. Thats got to hurt when you can't even get paid to rebuild your own country. I guess maybe that is why the Iraqi's are'nt to fond of us and oh yeah we could even pull our troops out with the infrastructure in place. When you hear some Republican or Democrat say we can't pull the troops out ask why we have'nt been rebuilding the infrastructure for the past three years and then ask what benefit they get out of the troops staying.
