It is Just Like Vietnam, with the Same Missed Lessons

Here's one Our Leaders missed. Of course, W is a certified moron but his advisers? Or does he just overrule them? (Does he work that hard?)

Obama said that, by sending more troops now, Bush is giving up the only real source of leverage America has with Iraqis without forcing any actual concessions from them first.

Link.

Exactly. If we send in our guys to die for the Iraqis that will really inspire the Iraqis to take a more active role. Just like the South Vietnamese. Not.

This time it's different. In the wingnuts' imaginations, dreams, delusions and prayers. And they're our leaders.
