No President has been able to fix squat there, one might fairly say

I guess the question becomes: is it a 'solvable' problem?

Only time will tell, but past history doesn't seem to support a positive result. If the idea is to create a democracy, I think we'll fail. If the idea is to give the Iraqis a chance to choose a government that will have both representation and stability (a Republic?), then there is an outside chance. However, it is my opinion that if we overstay, it will diminish the chances of a successful non-despotic regime.

We'll just have to wait and see.
