We are still in that surge to keep violence down and allow the government "space," aren't we?

These things are still happening:

BAGHDAD — A car bomb set to explode during the busiest time of day killed at least 51 people and wounded 75 Tuesday evening as shoppers were strolling through a Shiite neighborhood market in Baghdad. It was the deadliest attack in the Iraqi capital in more than three months.

The blast struck a crowded bus terminal near a market in Huriya, a northwest Baghdad district that once had a large population of Sunnis but after the American-led invasion saw horrific ethnic cleansing by Shiite militias and death squads, who killed or drove thousands of Sunnis out.

We uncorked the bottle that led to this, I know, but there's little we can do now but keep our own troops from getting killed...

Time to bring 'em home.
