I have to agree with that.
And I'll also agree that my analogy with Vietnam isn't perfect. But here's the bottom line, with Vietnam or Iraq, or wherever: If you are going to get involved in a major war, you sure as hell had better be in it to win it. Otherwise, don't get involved.
LBJ ignored that, and so did W. I cannot forgive either one, ever.
I agree! I don't want to see our military sent anywhere without the freedom to accomplish a clear goal.
