No. USD withdrawals outside of Japan have very long delays and some are not processed at all.

If you get your money back it will take weeks or months. I consider having fiat and/or BTC at Gox a liability.

This is the reason why buying at Mt.Gox is a lot more expensive than at other exchanges +5 / +10 %.
I'd buy at bitstamp. Money in, buy, withdraw BTC to paper wallet, done.

I just recently withdrew from bitstamp (SEPA). Took about one or two workdays if I remember correctly.

No you will have troubles withdrawing USD to the states from MtGox.

Try to find someone on localbitcoins
