Those facts from history are a prerequisitie necessary to be a patriotic American. You want to see why Iraq is such as mess? Read David Halberstam's "Making of a Quagmire". Published in 1965, it makes the Iraq debacle and a potential American defeat obvious because it defines facts and concepts - not 'big dic' thinking.
BTW, to appreciate how so many here thought differently back then, review those many "The Cellar" discussions in 2002 and 2003 in Politics and Current Events. Appreciate how obvious Iraq was back then and how much so many here have changed in the past year.
But then in 2002 and 2003, support for a mental midget president was based more in emotion - little on what we all should have learned from Nam. I repeatedly cite those post not to tout my horn - but to remind the so many Cellar Dwellers of how their own mindset was their own worst enemy - and therefore why they supported this lying president's war. Learn from your mistakes because history says in 30+ years, another anti-American president will again try to screw the world by wrapping himself in lies, Limbaugh propaganda, and the flag.
