1. It's what's happen to all the troops in Iraq who have died because of

Bushit's private fucking war.

2. Depends on who's saying it

Dying for nothing for everyone else but if shrub uses it it means dying to make me look good.

3. Lots of junkies die in vein n/t

5. That's the rationale chickenhawks use to allow more troops to die in vain.

We'd still be fighting the Red Menace in SE Asia if it were up to the chickenhawks.

Whenever I encounter that I ask, "What's your threshold number that you would accept before you decide that further troops dying is pointless?"

6. Used a lot during Vietnam too. It's used to prolong wars that have

already been lost.

8. Per the Dictionary they are dying in vain each & every day:

- in vain

1 : to no end : without success or result <her efforts were in vain>
2 : in an irreverent or blasphemous manner <you shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain -- Deuteronomy 5:11 (Revised Standard Version)>
