Kennedy evokes the Vietnam 'quagmire' fears of Americans

Edward Kennedy has declared that Iraq is turning into "George Bush's
Vietnam", part of what the veteran liberal senator called a "breach of
trust with the American people".
At the same time, John Kerry, the likely Democratic nominee, said Mr
Bush might have set the 30 June date for a handover of sovereignty to
an interim Iraq government for domestic political reasons.

Hell, Shrub breached that 'trust' right after he took his hand off the
bible he lied his ***** off on.
At the same time, John Kerry, the likely Democratic nominee, said Mr
Bush might have set the 30 June date for a handover of sovereignty to
an interim Iraq government for domestic political reasons.
The 'hand over' will not occur.

Pretty much a "duh?". Sure, "interim Iraq government" on June 30. Does
that mean the troops are coming home?
Can anyone say South Vietnamese puppet regime?
