Ending the Iraq War

Political update:

I don't want to distract your attention from Maggie Howell's excellent guest post, which is just below, but we've just received an interesting new political "action item." Senator Boxer released a statement today, in which she expressed her support for legislation calling for the withdrawal of American forces from Iraq. If, like me, you think this sounds like a good idea, please go to her website and sign the petition.

If you don't, you probably want to be redirected to some other site.
