Still looking for a "War Czar," Mr. President?

A Young George W. Bush with his father, George H. W. Bush

A clear possibility pops into my mind as I view this old photo of you and your dad from your family photo album, George ... why not your father--the one who had the common sense to accomplish our purposes in Iraq in 1991 and then pull back to the border of Kuwait ... and not lose a single American soldier for more than a decade?

How well I recall the happiness expressed by my comrades (the Saudi officers in the Royal Saudi Air Force in Riyadh) when he avoided releasing the (carefully controlled) ancient Sunni-Shiite hatred back then--as well as avoiding the spectre of a possible insertion of a US occupation force into a sovereign Arab country.

You have read your father's excellent book, haven't you, George?
