#1 This comparison will NEVER hit the MSM because:
1> it would link Obama with Vietnam; and
2> it would link Obama with Nixon!
I think either of these comparisons would be anathema to the MSM and progressives everywhere.

#3 Bush had A'stan right - effectively 'declare victory and leave', which he pretty much did 10 years ago. But noooo, A'stan was the 'good' war, and Iraq was bad, so we had to back.
