What problems exactly did it solve? I mean, I think you may be partially right. I support our presence in iraq because A. we're there, so we should, um.....stay the course, and B. It's really nice to see at least the beginning of a democratic Iraq.
However, was that why we went in there? Couldn't you argue that it would be really nice to invade Libya, N. Korea, Zimbabwe, Syria, Iran, Cuba, Venezuela, and every other despoting and oppressive regime? If we invaded all of those countries and somehow managed to democratize them, would the Left still look foolish for being critical of it? I don't think so.
