Main objective is to remove Saddam Hussein from power and ensure that some other evil dictator does not take his place.
If I was Bush, I would.....
1) Remove Saddam Hussein from power.
2) Install democracy in Iraq.
3) Get the fuck out of there.

Arab leaders in the Middle East are more pro-US than their citizens. I think we'd be better off with a tempered dictatorship than a democracy. Hard to imagine that shiites with voting power would do anything but vote for anti-US and anti-Israeli leaders.
Anyway, we'll try and install a democracy and hope it works out ok. Maybe they'll stick to the new constitution -- whatever it may be.
