yeah, I guess you're right...it's a cake walk...piece of cake...you know, this sounds like something Kerry might say..."...and you might get stuck in Iraq...good news is, though, that it's a piece of cake..." ...so I answered your question...now, how 'bout answering this one? Have you been in combat?
No.
But I know several people who were in Nam, and I know several people who are, and have been, in Iraq.
Telling the Iraq folks, "Good job, it's tough and dangerous but you are winning in a cake walk" is exactly what they want to hear.
What they *don't* want to hear is, "Oh, some of our boys have died, time to run!"
