33. "Punked" hell. We got our ass kicked.

For the whole world to see. Our bungling politicians and military bit off more than they can chew when they invisioned cheering Iraqis kissing the troops hands and naming they're kids Dubya.

Funny thing about invading someone elses country, people tend to resent it.

The idea that we should stay and "help" is tantamount to saying that things would have gotten better in Vietnam if we had stayed and "helped".

Hubris got us in and defeat is getting us out.
