1. Bush and Johnson's war quotes - see any similarities...!
Iraq And Viet Nam? Side-by-Side quotes from Presidents Bush and Johnson


* Johnson, March 15, 1967: "America is committed to the defense of South Vietnam until an honorable peace can be negotiated." Despite the obstacles to victory, the president said, "We shall stay the course."

Bush on Aug. 3, 2005: "We will stay the course, we will complete the job in Iraq. And the job is this: We'll help the Iraqis develop a democracy."

* Johnson on Aug. 16, 1967, on South Vietnam's government: "Our nation was not born easily. There were times in those years of the 18th century when it seemed as if we might not be born at all. Given that background, we ought not to be astonished that this struggle in Vietnam continues."

Bush, on Aug. 27, 2005: "Like our own nation's founders over two centuries ago, the Iraqis are grappling with difficult issues, such as the role of the federal government. What is important is that Iraqis are now addressing these issues through debate and discussion -- not at the barrel of a gun."

* Johnson, April 6, 1967: "Be assured that the death of your son will have meaning," he Johnson told the parents of a posthumous recipient of the Medal of Honor. "For I give you also my solemn pledge that our country will persist -- and will prevail -- in the cause for which your boy died."

Bush on Aug. 24: "These brave men and women gave their lives for a cause that is just and necessary for the security of our country, and now we will honor their sacrifice by completing their mission."

Find any similarities...?

2. Think America
Actually, he wants you to start thinking about your fella Americans and how much they need leadership from a President who gives a rip about the poor and the environment and realizes that it's time to put away the International Gameboy for a while.:mad:
