Remembering the Iraq War's Pollyanna pundits

As Iraq continues to grind on and the (never again, finally crushed) specter of Vietnam rears it's head.

I think it's always time we remind ourselves at the joy which is the computer age.

We owe it to the current 2313KIA, 17,000WIA Americans and the 100,000+ Iraqis...

edit: As was pointed out Iraq has deserts and Vietnam has jungles. But they both have pronoun named rivers the MeKong and Euphrates.

are allowed to keep blathering and are still making money pontificating on the talking heads shows! America really has the 1 week memory span...

And now three years later, all of this goes right down the memory hole.

"We're proud of our president. Americans love having a guy as president, a guy who has a little swagger, who's physical, who's not a complicated guy like Clinton or even like Dukakis or Mondale, all those guys, McGovern. They want a guy who's president. Women like a guy who's president. Check it out. The women like this war. I think we like having a hero as our president. It's simple. We're not like the Brits."
