I don't pretend to know how Iraq can be fixed NOW. I was pretty sure Iraq could be fixed right after the war by essentially giving every idle Iraqi a job (which would have been surprisingly inexpensive). But that was a non-starter in the ideologically driven Bush administration which worships the "free market," regardless of conditions.

I agree with you that whoever gets elected in November will have a monumental task in front of him and a possible no-win situation. If Bush gets elected, there is a good possibility that his second term will mirror Nixon's second term, if Iraq blows up.
