Jay Carney: “But in the end, either Iraq is sovereign or it's not. Either we're an occupying force or we're an invited force.”

It sounds like the Goldilocks AUMF, right, authorization for the use of military force, which means it basically pleases almost no one.

I think what we have to see is whether or not the extreme rhetoric that we have heard from Republicans, that you just cited will be matched by extreme action.

The biggest problem the Republican Party has right now is that they don't have a policy on immigration, which is why we don't have an immigration bill.

The answer, although it might have been appealing sometimes and it can be appealing in retrospect, is not always the use of military force without end and without a logical plan to reach success.
