It is interesting how people demand a perfect, low cost, fast sol'n to a nasty problem. I suppose it makes them feel 'above it all.'

Was there a point?
Oddly...seems like those who first demanded war demanded the American public believe it would be perfect, low cost, fast, wouldn't require many troops, and also bolstered hard-targets and good intel as well as soldiers greeted as liberators. I.E., a dash of half-baked forethought with loads of self-righteousness -- mostly from the right...
I guess those were missed points as well, huh?
Again: the largest missed point: Vietnam.
Again: crappy article if it wants to speak objectively.
Thanks for trying...
