When we pulled him out of that spider hole, why didn't we dust him off, get him a haircut and shave, and put him back in power as "our man in Iraq"?
He had no military.
He had no weapons.
He knew how to keep the oil flowing.
He knew how to keep the Iraqi people from killing each other.
He did a half-way decent job of keeping Iran at bay.
And if he ever got out of line, we could always smack him around some to show him who's really got the nuclear balls.
