I am playing with you karen. You always get into this vietnam thing blaming dems, demonstrators, students, & msm for our defeat. LBJ, macnamara and Westy got us into that war. Nixon prolonged it well after it was clear we COULD NOT win anymore regardless of what you or uncle say. Werent you a sensient human being back then? If so your eyes deceive you because you see what you want to see and not whats really out there. Now you will make the same mistake with iraq. There was no real way for us to win a nationalist based civil war who had just defeated france. In iraq i think we could have prevailed but in retrospect from the time that those munition dumps were left unguarded and the local cops were firred and looting began, we should have known that it would take alot more manpower. So who is to blame for iraq defeat. Not the dems or the demostratior or MSM--its bush, rummy, and the generals who just follow orders. The latter are like athletes waiting for a book deal after they leave the service but while in the service its all about blind obedience. Maybe thats the only way a military can operate. I would like to think someone should have had the balls to resign.
