I guess you hear what you want to hear. One group rejoices at the assumption that Dubya is the Earth's new Savior, and credits him with the Lebonese peoples' desire for an end to Syrian occupation of Lebanon. I guess the human imagination is very powerful.

At the same time, the other group is wondering where Dubya is going to get enough troops to invade Syria since we've had to resort to using National Guard and reservists in order to occupy Iraq. And while this same group would normally assume that no President would be so foolish as to occupy yet another ME country while our troops are already stretched thin fighting to finish our invasion of the first ME country, we also know that conventional wisdom simply confuses our current "president."

I have yet to see Dubya make a decision that could have been worse. Declaring war on Syria and beginning an invasion is very possible. Idiotic, but certainly something Dubya would not hesitate to do. I think foreign policy is not so complex to him. Everyone else, yes. But to him, no. Gosh, if I were a press person I might ask him "Mister President, which is more complex, achieving peace in the Middle East, or putting a saddle on a horse?" But then Dubya does not receive questions like this, does he?
