If Bush’s memory can reach back some 15 years, he will remember that a country made up of different factions and put together artificially is bound to fall apart again once the iron fist that kept them together is removed.
It was the case in former Yugoslavia and it may be the same scenario again in Iraq.

What kind of cowboy nonsense is this? “In other words, Americans understand you’re newcomers to the political arena. But pretty soon it’s time to shut her down and get governing.”
Does this twit not realize that it’s going to take some serious ground-level training and will have to grow at their own pace, not at the pace that will correspond to our election cycle?
