So little to hold onto

Six years into an anti-Constitutional presidency, two years since he created waves, and Howard Dean is still the only Democrat calling crap when he sees it.
You don't make a permanent commitment to a failed policy.

Finishing the job? The job was finished. We went in there to get rid of Saddam Hussein. We got rid of him. Then we decided we were going to occupy the country, and then we decided that we would try to mitigate a civil war, which we're now in.

The problem is, the job, as far as the President keeps defining it, is a moving target. He doesn't know what the job is. He doesn't know what the end point is.
Lots more on a variety of subjects. Why am I so excited to hear any public figure say these things? Don't we have actual candidates who might want to make the same points? Hello?
