Disconnect

These two concurrent, but separate, headlines say it all...



I wonder who the 30-34% are who still support this. Eternal optimism or mindless devotion?

Alas- is that reality setting in? After years of dismissing the mere suggestion of it, the President has finally accepted the obvious Iraq/Vietnam parallels, giving an answer he already probably regrets to a George Stephanopoulos comparison of the fighting in Iraq today to the 1968 Tet Offensive. President Johnson (and later Nixon at first) stayed the course in that war. How'd that work out for them?

Last one to the helicopter on the embassy roof is a rotten egg!
