During the Vietnam War the band "The Who" had a song called "Won't Get Fooled Again".

I'm just old enough to remember how Vietnam was a "quagmire" that seemed like it would never end and when it finally did...the entire country was wondering why in the hell we did it in the first place.

I recall the Bush administration swearing that this wouldn't be like Vietnam.
Yet...here we are 13 years later. The original bullshit reason we went into Iraq is long gone.
And now the President is about to put troops on the ground again (calling them "advisers").

I always heard that "history repeats itself".
And now I am seeing it first hand in my own lifetime.
