The end of the war (sort of)

What is the worst foreign policy in the history of US came to a fairly quiet end last week. The madmen in charge are all gone. Bye Hussein. Bye Junior. Bye Cheney. The US invaded a country based on a human rights issue, a bunch of fabrications about the danger of the country and a desire for oil. Really, this was the stretch of military doctrine to the impossible. I don't care if there was a poorly drafted UN resolution. This was pure agression. I am very very glad that the Cold War ended before Junior became president, or none of us may still be around.

I sorted of expected more or a recap. So many people were killed. So much was achieved. This is the future of Iraq. There seemed to be very little of that. Why? Is it because we achieved so little? It seems like the people of Iraq are in many ways in worse condition then they were. Is it because, really, we've still got 50,000 mostly military people there? Is it because we've got another war still going on and we are all suffering from war fatigue? Poor us, having to hear about it in the news.

I'm just trying to figure out why this wasn't a bigger deal.
