War Protesters Put Heat on Bush
Anti-war groups are using a $1 million ad campaign and a demonstration they say will attract 100,000 people to try to re-energize their movement and pressure the Bush administration to bring troops home from Iraq.
Organizers of Saturday’s protest, which will take marchers past the White House, say it will be the largest since the war began more than two years ago.

So whats your take?
At this stage would it be best to bring the troops home? Who would fill the vacuum created if all the troops would just leave? Will there ever be an easy way out? Guess not, it will hurt whatever way you look at it.
UPDATE:
Protest organizers estimated a crowd of about 200,000 rallied at the Ellipse, then marched around the White House and along Pennsylvania Avenue. Police downgraded the count to about 150,000.

BTW also think timing was unfortunate for the protesters as most news outlets are bussy with hurricane Rita stories.
