[quote=Allan from Fallbrook]Interesting article in Salon.com from Juan Cole, a leading lefty author, on the potential for Pakistan and Afghanistan to become Obama’s Vietnam. He likens the present situation to the one facing LBJ as he took office following JFK’s assassination in Dallas. He also warns that the present situation in that part of the world, like Vietnam in 1963, could wind up having a life of it’s own, outside of Obama’s ability to control it.
Great article, Allan. I wonder how many more troops and innocent civilians will have to die in this new front on “terror” before the Left Wing finally comes to its senses and realizes that they have been snowed? What do you think? Seriously, when I have these discussions with Democrats now they just sort of stare at me with a blank face, and then when I push them for a response they walk away, mumbling something about not wanting to be depressed.
