Those like Ted "the swimmer" Kennedy intentionally use the word "quagmire" to conjure emotional reaction and link that reaction to Vietnam...Not an ounce of truth, except those claiming quagmire are precisely those who demoralized the troops, the country and aided the enemy during Vietnam...These leftists sent our warrior into the ring with both hands tied behind his back, sat in the home-team's grandstands whispering failure, and cheered as the opposition scored a point...This cost countless lives, just as the PC-ness of this war is costing lives, albeit much less.
