I think the only valid antiwar message -- i.e., a call for immediate, not 
phased, withdrawal -- *is* a simple one.  It can be put in two words that 
can be written two feet high and seen a hundred feet away:  OUT NOW.  John 
Kerry, Prince of Denmark, already tried the "nuanced" approach.  As is so 
often the case, subtlety availeth nothing.
