Iraq policy: flop around like a fish on a dock.
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/05/21/AR2007052101439.html?hpid=opinionsbox1

David Ignatius:

"President Bush and his senior military and foreign policy advisers are beginning to discuss a "post-surge" strategy for Iraq that they hope could gain bipartisan political support. The new policy would focus on training and advising Iraqi troops rather than the broader goal of achieving a political reconciliation in Iraq, which senior officials recognize may be unachievable within the time available."

Why does this "new" strategy sound so familiar?

2. Yes.
Stupid, inattentive people put them in power in the first place.
