Sorry about that, didn't mean to infer that you suggested anything, I was talking in the context of history. The point I was trying to make is that if you start a job, you have to finish it, or it will surely come back to bite you in the rear-end...regardless of how distasteless or unpopular finishing said job may be (witness Vietnam and Gulf War I to name just two involving the U.S.). Again, sorry, I wasn't trying to put words in your mouth.
