NOW can we cut and run?

For the record, I hate the death penalty. It's inappropriate at any time during any circumstance. But this is a soap box for a different day. So that said, the Iraqi High Court has sentenced Saddam to death. And while I realize he gets his automatic appeal, blah, blah... it's over. So can we get the hell out of Iraq now? I was watching the list of soldiers who've died the past couple of days scroll across my screen last night. They ranged in age from 19 - 25! The horror of it all makes me so angry. We're wasting lives, lives of people who aren't even old enough to legally drink or rent a car... for what? So there you have my strong opinion and political statement. Now get out and vote for the good guys tomorrow.
