Right...

--So basically let's hold a rally to say they died for nothing
To be honest, I believe that there are some parallels between Iraq and Vietnam. The problem is that it's not going well and the Iraqi people don't want us there, no matter what Fox News says.
So I guess I feel the same way about the soldiers who died in Iraq as I do about the soldiers that died in Vietnam. It wasn't their fault that they were there, and they deserve to be honored for their service. When I visited the Vietnam War memorial in DC, I was really moved, and I hope that something equally impressive is constructed for these soldiers. However, this still doesn't mean that I think that either war was justified.
