Are you implying a link between "search & destroy" and "degrade & destroy"? As military strategies the former was doomed to fail due to the politicalicL interference of a White House. Specially gradual response & Stand down when a false breath through in Paris was on the horizon. You remember, the light at the end of the tunnel...
Now a strategy & a new conflict. Turn the DOD loose, fight to win. Pray no mid-air collisions over hostile forces. I do not want to see another American degraded. Keep the White House out of this conflict. I will give the strategy the time to prove itself.

Learning from the past is important. Vietnam's failure was in once started, not winning the conflict.

RE: We have failed to learn the lessons of Viet Nam and the Bush-Cheney war.

Why do you people call Iraq the Bush-Cheney war, but you don't call Vietnam the Kennedy-Johnson war?
Just wondering.

Damn....I had no idea I could push the POTUS around. You talk a lot of smack and would say anything to make the idiot look like his mistakes are all the fault of another. But now you have actually gone way too far. You attempt to portray a tyrant as somebody who is being pushed around by a minority of voters.

How does that work Kenneth? Is the tail really wagging the dog?

....and the Bush-Cheney war.

Sorry, you parrot chump................the talking points are not going to work this time.

obama NOW owns this Iraq conflict. It's all his.

The Obama resurgence! I love the sound.

Please listen to Rush today, or a replay. He was giddy with bubbling,overflowing excitement and joy on the

ABSOLUTE IRONY of this entire situation.

The press and obama created 5 years of "dumb Bush" and "Cheney's Halliburton war" and "blood for oil",

AND NOW OBAMA OWNS IT ALL.

How Positively delicious!!!!

I would love to see the sick look on your face today!

Kenneth, a leader leads. By your comment, you are saying he is weak and can be manipulated. I agree with your comment.
