Quote:
On his first day as defense secretary, Robert Gates warned Monday that failure in Iraq would be a "calamity" that would haunt the United States for years.

The only "failure" in Iraq is that the Iraqis didn't step up and take over enforcing the security of their new free country. I'm starting to think that they would actually prefer a harsh dictatorship rather than freedom.
