That it (Iraq) is far, far from being our worse loss is all.

Although even Vietnam did accomplish some things though, as did Iraq.

If you believe that, then go give your own life. Too old? That's okay, your kid probably isn't. I'm sure there is a recruiter in Cleveland somewhere. Or do you believe in taking the Bush/Cheney/Romney priviledged chickenhawk approach? Oh, that's right-----you're too poor.

Financially speaking, it is the worst, 'cept for WW 1&2 and tha Civil War, maybe. But, we had other, more legimate reasons for fighting those wars and we didn't have to lie to get the people to support it. Plus....we actually won those ones....without having to dogmatically insist we did while telling more lies in the GOP propaganda machine.

What did Vietnam accomplish? Other than profit the MIC to astounding heights and ruin the lives of hundreds of thousands of our own young men?
