So Bush to compare Iraq to Vietnam

[ShaneGR]

In a speech he's going to give today he'll be making direct comparisons between the two wars. At least he's finally admitting Iraq is a quagmire.

3. "This chapter of the war on terra is kinda like Vietnam..."

I had no idea what was happening then and I have no idea what is happening now.

Now watch this drive.

2. The similarities for Bush are striking:

1. He used his daddy's influence and friends to insulate him from the real conflict.
2. He takes a lot of time off from his current assignment.
3. Now that he has totally fucked things up, it's time to get the hell out and let someone else clean up the mess.

Fux Fantasy will spin it so he sounds like something intelligent.

[Maraya1969]

6. "The terrorists who wage war in Iraq..().seek to spread a politcal vision

of their own."

I thought we were the ones waging war in Iraq.

8. Only if it's the revisionist history of the Vietnam War

You know, the one where Vietnamese peasants were united in their opposition to the Viet Cong and if those Communist traitors in Congress had just just let our troops kill more peasants in more places like My Lai and turn Vietnam into a parking lot everything would have been fine. The one where it really was necessary to destroy Vietnam in order to save it, and where Americans were doft for not being willing to do that. Whatever happened to the nation of John Wayne?
