We didn't leave Nazis in charge of Germany.

No, they weren't "in charge," but many former Nazis did operate the infrastructure during the period immediately following WWII, under Allied supervision.

Patton was doing that, but wasn't that why Ike relieved him from Third Army?

The Nazi party comprised a much larger percentage of the German population than the Baathists, especially when you include the Hitler Youth.

We have some of them (Bathists) around as advisors and technicians. They are just not running the show. Some will in time earn their stripes with the Iraqi people and become productive. Sounds like a pretty good plan to me.
