1. And our civil war, and the revolutionary war, and Korea, and..
every other gawd damned war except Vietnam.

They're supposed to be talking about Bush's surge, and nothing else. I didn't think it was possible, but my hatred for Republicans is growing by the hour.

2. They've been doing that for a while now
One of the standard RW responses as to why we're still in Iraq has been "we still have troops in Germany even though it's 60 years after World War 2"

6. They did that yesterday as well..
some A**hole puke (possibly Duncan Hunter) was comparing Iraq with Davy Crockett-specifically, what if we did not send reinforcements to Davy Crockett at the Alamo? I did a double take when I heard that one. They are comparing apples and oranges by setting up arguments that have no relevance. What the hell does what happened at the Alamo have anything remotely to do with the current situation in Iraq? They are so desperate that they are making idiotic comparisons to things that have absolutely no relevance to the current situation. It's beyond pathetic.
