That is right Jr. follow Sr. 's ideas, they are the reason that we are on a collision course right now for war with Iraq.

GWB should follow his plan of attack right now. If most of the following are true.

1) Plan to prosecute the war all or nothing.
2) Fight the war to completion and remove rogue elements.
3) If there is a reasonable percentage of the population who are willing to take a wait and see approach to the new nation.

5) Aggressively fight corruption in the new government.
