Now I'm faced with a dilemma, I like this person, I hired them, spent time with them, trained them, and when needed defended and vouched for them. Do I ignore what they have done, ignore the fact that apparently they have changed or done wrong, or do I get rid of the person because they are dangerous to my business, they are a thief, they are dishonest?
It's not that hard of a choice really. Just because you put someone in a position does not make that person free to do whatever they want to do without fear of retribution. And it's not hypocritical to fix it after it reaches a level and you lose complete influence or control. If the situation becomes not only dangerous for those that are directly under them but for everyone else that is on the planet. So get off the subject, and until you get a security clearance and have access to all of the intel, just not the part that is conveniently leaked by one side or the other, it is probably better not to place such a fixed opinion on something don't you think?

Your analogy is way off. Iraq isn't some mom and pop store that sells computers, we're not talking about a thief and it's not in the United States, either.
Homebiz was touting the capture and murder of Saddam Hussein as some sort of triumph. The US created that monster and homebiz thinks some credit is due for putting an end to it. While the rest of us realize that he might not have been in the position to be a monster if it weren't for US meddling in the affairs of other countries to begin with. So, you'll have to excuse me if I don't jump for joy that GWB corrected one mistake by making another mistake, and a colossal one at that.
He also seems to forget the recent history of gas prices for some reason.
I guess he's not old enough to drive yet.
