I think they're savages and should be left to themselves. Wasting a single American life on such people was an unforgivable act. Savages need a crazy and ruthless dictator to manage them...
That said, I think Bush will probably veto it, far too much money has been invested into this affair to just let them revert to a theocracy and thus endanger the investment. They got what they wanted, a puppet government that will do what they're told, it's highly unlikely they'll just pull back now and let them do as they wish. Most of the violence is among the Iraqis themselves anyway, so it's not that similar to Vietnam. That was a carnage and America pulled back because they realized they couldn't win the war. This was is over...
