Nope.
Not really.
Not in the same ballpark, not even the same damn sport.
Vietnam started as advisors and escalated into a full-blown guerilla conflict.
Iraq is currently a nation-building mission. Major conflict is over. Guerrilla hit and run tactics are ocurring, but with NOWHERE near the loss of life in Vietnam.
It will take a while to build the nation that is Iraq, Bush wants to turn the government over to the Iraqis next summer, but we will still have troops there. BUT, i highly doubt that 5 years from now we will have 1/100th of the troop presence that we did 5 years into the Vietnam conflict.

because while you may be a republican who would make such a throwaway comment, i think we may come up 360 GOPers short.(using the number for a joke, i'm sure there are other disgruntled GOPers out there, not too many that i've met personally though)
in closing, the only thing directed towards YOU in that post was a refutation of your claim that this is a Vietnam for the 21st century.
