Comments on: Vietnamese Scoff At Bush's Iraq Analogy

It''''s a miracle that the Americans WON in both Germany and Japan during World War Two. It''''s good for us they didn''''t have a defeatist attitude like today''''s Americans.

No, it is not a miracle. All that is necessary to understand is to look at the difference in leadership. Bush is no FDR and Bush is no Truman. The difference between him and them is astronomical in terms of ethics, competence, intelligence, and morality. Neither FDR nor Truman used the war for their personal gain, or the personal gain of their sponsors.

Just two questions for my fellow Americans:

1) Why is the sock puppet for Special Interests still in office?

2) And who does Congress really serve and protect?

The United States armed forces didn''t lose the Viet Nam War. You can lay the blame for that squarely where it belongs: the U.S. Congress. North Vietnam signed a peace agreement to end the war and promised not to invade South Vietnam. It''s called the Paris Peace Accords of 1973 and you can read it on the Internet.

And if the U.S. loses in Iraq then you will know it''s deja vu all over again!

Bushwackers'' Ball. You won''t be happy until there''s a debacle in Iraq just like Viet Nam. Nothing matters except the defeat of the United States then you''ll go back to sleep until the next war.

I am reminded of one of the sayings the Grunts wrote on their helmet covers: The unwilling, doing the impossible, for the ungrateful. I can understand the infantryman''s attitude because few soldiers enjoy bloody battles. I know their anger at how they were asked to fight the enemy with their hands tied behind their backs. And I feel their disappointment with the American people''s lack of support for their mission.

KyRockBkGold: Keep losing, keep blaming.

Great, just what we need - a "cut-n-run" "DIMocRat" guiding the ship of state.

Sorry about that; I didn''t catch the first part of your pun because I thought it was a typo.

KyRockBkGold: Read your own post: London, England.

Yeah, right. And you''d like to sell me a great used car only driven to church every Sunday by a little old lady.

Five days BEFORE Americans went into Iraq, Natalie Maines of the Dixie Chicks was personally attacking President Bush because he was a fellow Texan in front of an anti-war audience in London, England.

KyRockbkGold I had it right the first time "DIM" oc "Rat"s

Silly little kids laugh at stupid things.

DemocRats...LMAO.

Reading the Bushwackers'''' comments, it''''s a given that the U.S. can''''t win any war where the local people don''''t support our efforts.

Let me repeat one more time: There''s no anti-war movement to speak of. Congress has given Bush just about everything he asked for. The outcome is Bush''s actions alone.

But of course you will still a way to blame others.

Ho Chi Minh was a liberator!? Yeah, just like Fidel Castro. If Uncle Ho was Viet Nam''s George Washington then why did tens of thousands of South Vietnamese launch unseaworthy vessels out into the South China Sea, risking their lives to escape Communist "freedom."

By the way, why weren''t any Vietnamese who live here in the U.S. asked about Bush''s Vietnam War analogy?

[gunnerv1]

gkc99 OMG are you calling the DimocRats National Icons Kennedy and Johnson war mongers? Oh no, how can that be?

"hon - there isn''''t a soldier amongst the Bush Cabal -- and no Rumsfield doesn''''t count..."

I reckon Clinton, Edwards, and Obama fill the bill as Commander-in-Chief. Not a one of them has served in the U.S. armed forces.

FDR was a cripple who couldn''t serve his country as a soldier but that didn''t take away from his ability to serve as Commander-in-Chief during World War Two.

We were attacked, and fought back against the people who attacked us. That characterizes our action now in Afghanistan, but not Iraq. In fact, if Bushit hadn''t gotten us sucked into the Iraq nightmare, we''d be doing better against the Islamic Nazis who are the real enemies. Saddam was a monster, but no worse than other monsters the US supported (Shah of Iran, Rios Montt, etc. etc.).

Americans rightfully distrust sweeping pronouncements about our "vital interests" especially after the rationale for the Vietnam war turned out to be a lie, cooked up by some folks whom the war made even richer. There was no reason for the Vietnam war. The "domino theory" turned out to be a crock sponsored by the neocons of that era. Ho was a national liberator. The US was on the side of the French colonialists. So now we know how crooked the warmongers are in the USA, we are a lot more dubious about sucking up their Bushit once again.

[gunnerv1]

well, well, why don''t we ask some non-communist from Siagon what they think.... Oh, that''s right, they were all killed or (ha ha) re-educated. LOL. Remember: DImocRats lied, Vietnamese died.

Reading the Bushwackers'' comments, it''s a given that the U.S. can''t win any war where the local people don''t support our efforts. That being the case then I don''t want to hear any more about the plight of the people in Darfur. Obviously, any U.S. effort to save these desperate people would be a total waste even before the first American soldier landed there because the Sudanese people don''t want us in their country.

It''s a miracle that the Americans WON in both Germany and Japan during World War Two. It''s good for us they didn''t have a defeatist attitude like today''s Americans.

friends don''t let friends (or idiots) drive drunk ... especially when we''re also in the car.

so get in the trunk where you can regurgitate all your bile freely ... we''ll handle the driving from here ... and we''re turning around and going in another direction.
