On the contrary, he knew it would be difficult and difficult to explain to people and probably cause his popularity to suffer.

Really? Because I recall something about a "slam dunk" war, after which the Great Liberation Army would be greeted by cheering mobs of flower-tossing Iraqis.

You might like to post where you read that.

You certainly never heard it from the lips of our President.

As I said before, it was and could have been a slam dunk war. It's been over for years.

What we're doing now is attempting a peace-keeping operation in order to allow a democracy to form in Iraq, and we're trying to do that without undue harm to the population.

Population, by the way, who more or less look alike, wear no uniforms, and there is no way to tell who is off in a cave making IED's and who's just wanting peace and minding his own business.
