Another idea for Iraq . . .

I think both McCain and Obama have it wrong on Iraq. I don't think we should pull out, but I also don't think we should keep going as a "war." It is not unusual for the US to stay around in a country after a war to rebuild. Why can't we move into a "rebuilding" phase? We could continue with training Iraqi personnel and preserving the peace as best as can be done, but if we actually call it a "rebuilding" phase, perhaps we can shift the perspectives of all of us. What do you think?
