The Ugly, Disorganized Obama Victory on Syria

If there's one thing that Washington can agree on right now, it's that the Obama administration's handling of the chemical-weapons attack in Syria has been anything but orderly.

After weeks of a concerted effort on behalf of the president and his administration to push for a military response to the Assad regime's alleged use of chemical weapons in Syria, there might be a diplomatic solution that could make the region safer.

But up to this point, the process was marked by delayed responses, double standards, failing congressional support, mixed messages, and apparent gaffes. Even President Obama agrees that the process hasn't been without issue. However, that doesn't matter, he said on Sunday.

"I think that folks here in Washington like to grade on style. So had we rolled out something that was very smooth and disciplined and linear, they would've graded it well even if it was a disastrous policy. We know that because that's exactly how they graded the Iraq war," Obama said on ABC's This Week. "I'm less concerned about style points, I'm much more concerned about getting the policy right."

And that's what the president thinks he has right now: a policy victory through a rocky process.
