P.S. television is just wrong, I agree.
I have a feeling Bob thinks it's both, in which case he is misinformed.
The war on terror is NOT Vietnam. It's not even WWII, Korea, etc. To compare is to compare apples and oranges. We are fighting an enemy that has no country, no conscience and no problem with seeing dead American children. All other enemies valued their own lives and those of their children. Yes, even Nazis. Militant Islamists don't value their own lives and really don't value their own childrens lives as they are encouraged to strap bombs to their bodies and blow up pizza parlors.
Lyndon Johnson was overrun by left wing pro communitst forces in his own country. He got bogged down by idiots like John Kerry.
