Like we "conquered" Iraq "in a few weeks"? I know Dubya said 'Mission
accomplished' after a few weeks, but oddly enough, we are still there
five -years- later, and I'm not sure anything has been conquered but the
draining of our Treasury.

I see you remember Bush saying "Mission Accomplished" but you somehow
conveniently forgot that he also said the war on terror would be a
long drawn out war possibly lasting decades.

Don't fool yourself, it'll last centuries. But the war on Iraq is not
the war on terror.
