WW1....Woodrow Wilson (D) 117,000 dead Americans
WW2....fdr (D) 450,000 dead Americans
Korea....Truman (D) 36,000 dead Americans
Vietnam....jfk/lbj (D's) 58,000 dead Americans (and then the lefties spat upon our brave men upon return!)
Remove JFK from Viet Nam's equation. He was probably killed because he refused to escalate, + he botched the Bay of Pigs. He and Bobby created a lot of internal enemies, and look what happened to the both of them.
Within the first year of LBJ taking office, we were fully engaged. "his friends were making too much damn money"

Who knows if JFK was or wasn't killed due to political enemies. I admit it is weird JFK didn't want to enter the war and when LBJ replaced him we were in but that is just speculation to think we only went to war with LBJ.
I knew a paratrooper Vietnam vet, he was there BEFORE 1964 when war was declared...

I think both of them suck in some respects. But please show us how Bush was a warrior.
"Current and former U.S. officials said that Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the mastermind of the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, provided the nom de guerre of one of bin Laden's most trusted aides. The CIA got similar information from Mohammed's successor, Abu Faraj al-Libi. Both were subjected to harsh interrogation tactics inside CIA prisons in Poland and Romania."
The war in Afghanistan at least had some purpose behind launching it.
True.
We went there to kill people who are now dead.
Perhaps Obama's supporters could explain why we are still there.
