He should have pulled out of Germany and Japan before he pulled out of Iraq. This is the same thing the peacenics did to Vietnam.

Pray America is waking

You're right, but not in the way you mean.

The peaceniks who lost the war in Vietnam were named Robert McNamara, William Westmoreland, and Lyndon Baines Johnson.

Since their errors of understanding and deficient performance were never corrected, and in fact now permeate both the civilian and military wings of the "defense" establishment, my prediction, made right here on 9-13-01, that George W. Bush would fight a Vietnam war in South Asia sadly came true.

The job of the military is to conquer, not to build schools for girls. The job of the civilians is to supply the requisite men, beans, bullets, and bandages, and to NAME the enemy in a Declaration of War (except we no longer have a War Department).

"Iraq" was not a substantial enough nation to conquer, but the main enemy still sleeps soundly in Riyadh and Islamabad. If the American flag had been flying over the Governor's Palaces in those cities by Christmas 2002, you and I would never have heard of "Barack Obama" and we would be discussing other, more pleasant things.
