    I've always respected George Will.

    George is a pretty sharp guy, and there's nothing surprising in his comments.

    But seriously, I understand the Presidents frustration. We wish that the Iraqi's would stand up faster, but it's going to take time. For several decades, any Iraqi who stood up as a leader was tortured to death. It may take an entire generation to forget that conditioning.

    Moreover, even the best possible leader in Iraq is going to have to win support from the Shiites, the Sunni's, and the Kurds. That's quite a job, and not one which I would personally want to tackle.

    Oh, and the penalty for failure is death. And if you succeed, it may be after large numbers of your family members and close personal friends have been tortured to death in order to weaken your resolve to serve your country.

    Anyone looking for a job?
