Bush Needs a History Lesson

Perhaps you've heard already this morning about President Bush's absurd speech yesterday in which he suggested that the lesson learned in Vietnam was than we got out too soon; that if we had stayed we could somehow have "won" that war; that by leaving "early" we had precipitated the genocide of 3 million Cambodians; that in Vietnam we lost our will.

Meanwhile, we're at 3722, and counting.


Peace out.
