[Even if you accept the premise that the decision to go to war was flawed, even if you accept the premise that the President is prosecuting the war ineffectively, is it a good idea for the leader of the party to compare the Iraq war (and, presumably, the actions of the troops there) to Vietnam? Should the DNC leader be announcing that we shouldn't be in Iraq at all?

And, most importantly, what sort of propaganda victory/encouragement does it give the terrorists (and what sort of slam is it to the troops) to announce publicly that we can't and won't win the war?



You presume that NOT saying anything publicly discourages Terrorists. You are presuming that Terrorists operate with the same kinds of rational thinking that those of us who are Non-Terrorists think.

Terrorists, with their dogmatic commitment to their peculiar ideation will find encouragement in any course of action taken by their Enemies.
