Well, you've heard the speech and the plan. If you have global thoughts on the issue, feel free to opine, but I thought I'd give different labels to different parts of the speech.
The good -- At least pretending to be open to alternatives
The bad -- Your son or daughter will now be going door to door in Sadr City.
The Surreal -- Iraqis have to do more.
Others?
UPDATE: Dick Durbin in 08!!! Thank God he spoke instead of Pelosi.

I wonder if there is a specialist for outgoing appointees speechwriting, or if they draw lots?
I'm bored. I want my grades.
EW, I think you're mostly right, but one can also read the statement as saying "Regardless of who made the mistake, I take responsibility."
