It all goes back to why I was against the Iraq war to start with. It does take a radical dictator like Saddam to run and control a nation like Iraq.

What precisely is "the job"?
The last president that thought the mission was accomplished some years ago obviously had little idea of what "the job" was. I've seen noone come up with a satisfactory answer to the question for Iraq, Syria or Afghanistan, nor prior to that Vietnam and even as far back as Korea.
I don't expect we'll see a president who knows the answer in my lifetime.
