And another thing...

About that wacky Viet Nam comparison - the president is ignoring the fact that once we finally got out of Viet Nam the country stabilized nicely and become an economically and politically stable place (so stable it could become a player in the area). Sure, it wasn't our dream place (can you say "democratically elected Hamas?"), but it wasn't a chaotic exporter of instability and terror, either. That whole domino thing? Never happened.

I'm still failing to see how the real Viet Nam War - instead of the fantasy one neocons dream about - is relevant.
