US Iraq Embassy Mistake

Bush is spending $600 mil to build the world's largest and most elaborate embassy ever. And unlike many -- if not most -- US construction projects in Iraq (including power and water infrastructures), this one is on-time and on-budget. Some big fraction of us supporters of Bush's war imagined ourselves supporting a small-government president working to free Iraqi's from a big tyrannical government in Iraq; we did not sign-of on anything like this. And this seems like one factor working against the US efforts in Iraq.
