Are we better off ?   What are we winning?

We have increasing casualties.
Iraq still does not have effective power or water supplies.
There are more attacks each day.
We have lost over 2300 (now more than 3000) Americans since the "mission was accomplished."
Our paid-for or blackmailed allies are removing their troops.
We have spent hundreds of billions of taxpayer dollars and Iraq produces less oil than before the war.
We have stooped to torture, brutality, and murder of thousands who are mostly innocent of any crimes.
Our credibility is zero and our reputation is gone.
We have overextended our military, yet do not have the men we need to get the job done.
We have run up the largest debts in US history
Osama is still loose and George is not interested in finding him.
We removed our troops from the country which attacked us.
Iran and Korea continue to develop nuclear power and weapons.
Public Education, and our "free press" in America has failed us.
We have net job losses after six (now seven)  years.
Americans make less and have more expensive health care.
Transnational corporations are allowed to steal pensions and trust funds.
America is less free....

What is it we are winning?
