8. THAT is the lesson of Vietnam

If you're going to fight, fight 100%. If a war isn't worth 5,000 lives, it's not worth 1. That is what Republicans don't know. They're the ones who half-ass their wars and don't have the stomach for real sacrifice. So they end up with politically driven wars instead of militarily driven, that cost more lives in the end.

And if it isn't worth one more life, then you fight like hell to end the mission for all.
