Bush was 100% wrong and dishonest about Vietnam-Iraq today. We should have pulled out of both places years earlier than we did, and gained nothing by staying except stupendous cost and hundreds of thousands of dead bodies.

Yet when we did pull out, in 1972, the South Vietnamese did not fall for four long years. There was no genocide as Bush falsely implies. And the Cambodian massacres had nothing to do with us leaving. They were happening before we left. And we had a big influence on making them happen in the first place.

Bush has made a huge error. Maybe 5% of this country actually believes Vietnam was a worthy war and should have been extended, and those people are easy to nail in any debate because they have no real evidence to back up their false argument.

Hiustory has proven Vietnam and Iraq are the two worst blunders in US history and sooner we get out the better. But Bush is in extreme denial and will say anything to mislead the public. He loves his quagmire and doesn't want to give it up, maybe for the oil money only. That may be the only reason he invaded in the first place. While doubling the price we pay at the pump, and they did double it intentionally those Bushie thieves.
