It was also mentioned on the news this morning that Coalition troops will 
remain in Iraq until a freely elected government is in place.  This I agree 
with.  This should keep Turkey and Iran from salivating over a weak Iraq.

However, once this freely elected government is in place I most definitely 
support disbanding the Coalition and returning the troops to their respective 
countries.

Anything short of that is totally unacceptable to me.  We have domestic 
problems that require immediate attention.
