Quote of the Day

"We'll succeed unless we quit."

President Bush, drawing an Iraq lesson from Vietnam during his visit to Hanoi. And there you have it folks: had we stayed the course in Vietnam, we would have won the war. Had all those mushy liberals not been protesting in the streets of D.C., New York, etc., we would have won the war. Had Congress not cut off the funding, we would have won the war. Of course, all of this rests upon a willful distortion of history. Sadly, however, it's a narrative that enjoys a wide following, both inside and outside the halls of government.

UPDATE: Spencer puts it better than I did: "That's right, we won the Vietnam war. We took that shit! It just so happened that we got so drunk on victory that we walked off the field with a huge lead in the fourth quarter. [Bush] thinks you're even stupider than he is."
