I heard today that "escalation" is another hot button word from the Vietnam War Era...and that is why the dems are using that word instead of "surge"...

Because supposedly Nixon or Ford used the word escalation when they infused a lot of troops to try to win the war...before the dem Congress pulled the rug right out from under them.

Therefore the ESCALATION word is very on purpose.

I believe it, Txsleuth. They're running out of new "tricks" so they're bringing out the old ones. It infuriates me that so many people don't see what game the Dems are playing. Someone needs to take away the MSM trough of lies, inuendo, and bias. The internet is helping, and that's the best we can hope for right now I suppose.
