    Three cheers for Prez Bush waiting out the incompetent leadership of the House. With a little luck, this country won't have to deal with Pelosi next year!

    Hey Mark, it is really simple. There is no connection between the two fights. Vietnam was a local war where Lyndon(sp?) Johnson (Democrat) definitely screwed up and intervened. I ought to know, I was there getting my posterior shot off. Iraq is one part of a global war about international Islamic Jihad against the West. Did George W. Bush (Republican) screw up by intervening to change the dynamics and culture of the Middle East? We will know in a couple years. The two wars are as different as the cliche of night and day. We did not need to win in Vietnam. But the entire West does need to win in Iraq and Afghanistan by defeating Al-Qeada(sp?). The stakes are infinitely greater.
