So the United States thoroughly spanked Iraq in 1991, but it was unfair because we thoroughly spanked them.

Right?

What a ridiculous analogy. It's softball, not survival. Yeesh.

In Little League, there's a five-run limit per inning, 'cept for the last one, where you can score 'til you win. It's not wimpiness, it's class.

No. In real life you do what you need to do. Plus, there is winning in winning better in war (meaning that the fewer casualties you take the better in war, not like in a ball game where it doesn't matter how much you win by). So I guess I'm saying this was a poor analogy.

Your comment is bizarre, just bizarre.

Asinine analogy.

All's fair in love and war.

Not in softball.
