I will comment on one point you made. The one about not having the stomach to win wars. I would ask you to please tell that to the family of the next soldier who comes home in a body bag. We are reaching (or have already) the 500 billion dollar mark for this war. We have lost over 4000 US soldiers to this war - with at least another 30000 US soldiers injured. And you have the audacity to say we don't have the stomach to win this war. On fucking memorial day no less.
Dan do you think we fight this thing to win fast? Our soldiers have to fight with one arm behind their back ta taing to the PC Senators back home.  If you don't believe me I will supply links of soldiers saying they would have finished this thing long ago but there is so much red tape that we are putting a stranglehold on victory.  I talked with one personally that was on the front lines in fighting who told me as much.  I can't remember the town in Iraq he had cleared but it was similar to Fallujah in that it was infested with terrorist.
